Help Marta with a roofer's skills: a failed boiler with no heating
Looking for a licensed roofer in Palmira to donate time or work at cost.
Anywhere in the world270 views
In November an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $770 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 $55.
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 a roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Stay strong, Marta. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My neighbor in Saket donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Saket.

Thinking of you and your family, Marta. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best
