Help Rosa with a plumber's skills: a burst pipe behind the wall

A plumber is needed to repair a burst pipe behind the wall at the home of a family of 3.

In August an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,900 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 $185. 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

      Hang in there. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care

        hope it all works out, Rosa. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

              Best of luck, Rosa. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Gujranwala.

                    Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We're a small family in Casablanca but we're thinking of you. God bless.

                            Good luck. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
