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

In August an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,250 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 $260.
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.

Hope you get there. Love from Sacramento.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Porto Alegre this morning. Take care.
