A licensed plumber to fix a dangerous fault at Samira's home in Shubra

Samira has a leaking gas line, and can't afford a licensed plumber to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

Shubra
In July an inspector told me that my home has a leaking gas line. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $330 are beyond us. I'm looking for a licensed plumber who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $30. The job should take about six 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 plumber and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

          Stay strong, Samira. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 6 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
