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

Salvador has a failed boiler with no heating, and can't afford a licensed electrician to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In May an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $2,750 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 $250. The job should take about eight 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. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

                wishing you the best, Salvador. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Wish I lived closer to Mysuru so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Leeds.

                  It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
