Gas fitter needed urgently: Valentina's home isn't safe
Valentina 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 August an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $2,300 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 $270.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Riverside so I could bring a meal.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We're a small family in Üsküdar but we're thinking of you.
you're not alone, Valentina. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Jalandhar so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Best of luck, Valentina. Shared this with my family. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Mar del Plata.
