An electrician is needed to repair faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning at the home of a family of 3.

In August 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 elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $350 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed electrician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $45.
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 an electrician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.

Wishing you peace, Awino. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Embakasi.
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. God bless
Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Kikuyu donated after I showed her your page. Blessings!
