Help José with a plumber's skills: a burst pipe behind the wall
José has a burst pipe behind the wall, and can't afford a licensed plumber to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $940 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed plumber who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $50.
The job should take about three 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 plumber and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Glad we found this place.

Wishing you peace, José. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Ciudad de México.
thanks for sharing this, José. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. All the best!
Best of luck, José. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Casablanca.
thinking of you, José. 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. Take care.
Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 35 people at work. Greetings from Sherbrooke
