Help Tamaki with a roofer's skills: faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning
A roofer is needed to repair faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning at the home of a family of 4.

In July an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. 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 $210.
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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

You're not alone, Tamaki. Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Sakai
Sending strength, Tamaki. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from London.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Newport.

everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Nashville.
