A licensed gas fitter to fix a dangerous fault at Patrizia's home in Rome
Patrizia has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms, and can't afford a licensed gas fitter to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In August an inspector told me that my home has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,350 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed gas fitter who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $135.
The job should take about four hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're a gas fitter and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you the best, Patrizia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from La Plata.
wishing you the best. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
Good luck, Patrizia. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 28 people at work.
So sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Santa Fe this morning. Love from Santa Fe.
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Nice but we're thinking of you. Take care!
Thanks for sharing this, Patrizia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes!
Take care. Shared it with a few friends. After 16 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Rome
Sending good thoughts. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
praying for you, Patrizia. Hope this works out for you.
rooting for you, Patrizia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless
