Help Usha with a roofer's skills: a leaking gas line

Usha has a leaking gas line, and cannot afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In March an inspector told me that my home has a leaking gas line. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,450 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 $250. 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 roofer 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. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Móstoles.
