Gas fitter needed urgently: Cường's home isn't safe

Cường has a burst pipe behind the wall, and can't afford a licensed gas fitter to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In June an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $420 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 $20. 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Hang in there, Cường. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Hồ Chí Minh City

      A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.

        I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you. Love from Jakarta

          thinking of you, Cường. Your post was clear and honest. After 9 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything

            Sending love, Cường. Shared it with a few friends. Love from San Francisco.
