Help Jana with an electrician's skills: a septic backup
Jana has a septic backup, and can't afford a licensed electrician to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In June an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,500 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 $230.
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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Wishing you peace. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Sent it to 4 people at work. God bless!
Hope things get better soon, Jana. Your post was clear and honest. God bless
This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Cologne!
Thinking of you and your family, Jana. Shared this with my family. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this, Jana. Looking forward to the next update. Please keep us posted.
