Gas fitter needed urgently: Antoine's home isn't safe
A gas fitter is needed to repair faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning at the home of a family of 6.
🇨🇦 Laval, Quebec, Canada309 views
In April 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 three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,350 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed gas fitter who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $195.
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 gas fitter and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks for being kind about this.
