Is there a roofer who can donate a few hours in Cartagena?
A roofer is needed to repair a failed boiler with no heating at the home of a family of 4.

In July an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $680 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 $55.
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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hope things get better soon, Rubén. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out
Thinking of you, Rubén. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Wishing you the best, Rubén. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
