Electrician needed urgently: Lata's home isn't safe

Lata has a septic backup, and can't afford a licensed electrician to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In April an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $2,250 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 $185. 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 an electrician 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.
