Help Rabia with an electrician's skills: a failed boiler with no heating
An electrician is needed to repair a failed boiler with no heating at the home of a family of 5.
🇳🇱 1062 GD, Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands1,442 views
In September an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,900 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 $130.
The job should take about four 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you peace, Rabia. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from George.
hang in there, Rabia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Sending good thoughts, Rabia. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Madrid
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Kathmandu donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Sending love. Hope you get there. I hope November is when things finally get easier.
Stay strong, Rabia. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up. Blessings
Hope it all works out. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. God bless.
