Help Eleni with an electrician's skills: faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning
Looking for a licensed electrician in Heraklion to donate time or work at cost.
🇬🇷 Heraklion, Crete, Greece1,756 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 newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $800 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 $75.
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 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.

so sorry you're going through this, Eleni. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
stay strong, Eleni. Hope you get there. All the best
So sorry you're going through this. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Heraklion.
sending strength, Eleni. Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless
Best of luck, Eleni. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Zagazig.
Good luck, Eleni. Your post was clear and honest. God bless
Wishing you peace, Eleni. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 32 people at work. Greetings from Kaduna.
Thinking of you and your family, Eleni. Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Take care
So sorry you're going through this. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Montpellier this morning
