Restoring a heritage building is an investment, and grant funding can help offset the cost of conservation work. In New South Wales, heritage grant programs periodically support owners and communities caring for significant places. This is a general overview; always check current program details and eligibility before applying.

Grant funding in NSW

The NSW Government has run heritage grant programs to support conservation, including a 2025-27 program that awarded $8.65 million toward heritage projects across the state. Programs typically fund conservation works, repairs to significant fabric, and activities that keep heritage places in good condition and use. Eligibility, funding amounts, and timing vary by program and round.

Making the most of a grant

Grant-funded work usually needs to meet conservation standards and be properly documented, which aligns naturally with the way we work. Conservation-grade timber repair that retains original fabric is exactly the kind of work these programs are intended to support. If you are pursuing funding for a project, we can help scope and document the timber restoration component to suit.
