Help Adeline with a plumber's skills: a failed boiler with no heating

Adeline has a failed boiler with no heating, and can't afford a licensed plumber to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $780 are beyond us. I'm looking for a licensed plumber who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $180. 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 plumber and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you so much.

  • good luck, Adeline. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours.

    • Take care, Adeline. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.

      • Wishing you the best, Adeline. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best.

        • So sorry you're going through this, Adeline. Your post was clear and honest

            • This could happen to any of us. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Columbia.

              • You're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Ciudad de México so I could bring a meal

                • It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless!

                  • you're not alone. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Sakai but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Sakai.

                    • Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Eldoret.

                      • Sending good thoughts, Adeline. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Caloocan this morning. Thinking of Nottingham.
