Help Wangari 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 4.
🇺🇬 Jinja, Eastern Region, Uganda1,221 views
In June an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $270 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 $25.
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.
Thank you for reading my story.
