Help Hussain with an electrician's skills: a failed boiler with no heating
Looking for a licensed electrician in Karachi to donate time or work at cost.
🇵🇰 Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan1,232 views
In May 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 $290 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 $15.
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.
Thank you so much.

Thanks for sharing this, Hussain. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
Wishing you peace, Hussain. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Karachi.
thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Saint-Étienne.
This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Petrópolis this morning. Greetings from Petrópolis.
Praying for you, Hussain. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Karachi
Sending love. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in Kadıköy this morning. Take care.
take care, Hussain. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
