A licensed gas fitter to fix a dangerous fault at Russell's home in Birmingham
A gas fitter is needed to repair a septic backup at the home of a family of 3.
🇬🇧 Birmingham, England, United Kingdom708 views
In September an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,600 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 $85.
The job should take about three 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Praying for you, Russell. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.

Hope it all works out, Russell. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Kano.
Sending love, Russell. Shared this with my family. God bless
Take care, Russell. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Birmingham.

I hope things turn around soon. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Faisalabad.
