Half of renovation costs for child safety covered, up to ¥500,000

This new program from FY2026 (April 2026–March 2027) helps with the cost of renovation work for children's safety, such as installing handrails, removing steps, preventing fingers from being caught in doors, and installing cooking appliances with child locks. The subsidy is half of the eligible construction cost (excluding consumption tax), up to ¥500,000 (amounts under ¥1,000 rounded down). Eligible households support children aged 18 or under (within the fiscal year), and pregnant households that have received a Maternal and Child Health Handbook can also apply. Conditions are that you expect to keep living there for at least 3 years after the work is completed and have no unpaid resident tax, and the work must be done by a company registered with the "Itabashi City Home Renovation Contractor Registration System." Each home can apply only once. The program ends when the budget limit is reached. The city's page shows the planned grant amount as a percentage of the budget.
