Is there a plumber who can donate a few hours in Brisbane?
Looking for a licensed plumber in Brisbane to donate time or work at cost.
🇦🇺 Brisbane, Queensland, Australia1,070 views
In September an inspector told me that my home has a leaking gas line. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,150 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 $85.
The job should take about six 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.

Stay strong, Evelyn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Jakarta Barat.

Wishing you the best, Evelyn. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Guadalajara this morning. Blessings

Wishing you peace, Evelyn. Shared it with a few friends. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
