A licensed roofer to fix a dangerous fault at Volkan's home in Berlin
Volkan has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.
🇩🇪 Berlin, Berlin, Germany376 views
In November an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,950 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed roofer who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $185.
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 roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Keep going. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Thinking of Berlin
Good luck, Volkan. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My neighbor in Tema donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
you're not alone. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Stay strong. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Bang Khen this morning.
