Gas fitter needed urgently: Katherine's home isn't safe
A gas fitter is needed to repair a failed boiler with no heating at the home of a family of 4.

In December an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $2,400 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 $135.
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 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.

Rooting for you, Katherine. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Arlington.
Rooting for you, Katherine. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
