Help Henry with a roofer's skills: faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning

Looking for a licensed roofer in Cologne to donate time or work at cost.

In February 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 $1,400 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 $105. 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 roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    So sorry you're going through this, Henry. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours. All the best!

      stay strong, Henry. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Aurangabad so I could bring a meal. Take care

        Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Da Nang this morning. All the best.
