Help Doris with an electrician's skills: faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning
Looking for a licensed electrician in Derry to donate time or work at cost.
🇬🇧 Derry, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom431 views
In August 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 elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,250 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed electrician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $155.
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 an electrician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Best of luck, Doris. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together. All the best
Stay strong, Doris. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up.
Your post was clear and honest. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Naivasha
