Gas fitter needed urgently: Gabriella's home isn't safe
Gabriella has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning, and can't afford a licensed gas fitter to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July 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 two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $2,850 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 $175.
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 a gas fitter and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I hope life is good to you.

Best of luck, Gabriella. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Love from Hồ Chí Minh City.
Wishing you the best, Gabriella. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Corpus Christi.
Best of luck, Gabriella. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless.
