Help Arnel with a roofer's skills: a burst pipe behind the wall

A roofer is needed to repair a burst pipe behind the wall at the home of a family of 3.

In February 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 $2,100 are beyond us. I'm looking for a licensed roofer who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $280. 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 roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    you're not alone, Arnel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Nairobi so I could bring a meal
