Is there a roofer who can donate a few hours in Madina?

A roofer is needed to repair a failed boiler with no heating at the home of a family of 3.

Madina
In August an inspector told me that my home has a failed boiler with no heating. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $135 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 $20. 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 roofer and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    hope it all works out. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.

      Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Madina.

        Thanks for sharing this, Joseph. I hope things turn around soon. Take care

        • Eun-woo Gun-woo Kwon

          Sending strength, Joseph. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. After 15 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.

          • Michelle C. Brewer

            Sending good thoughts, Joseph. Hope you get there. All the best.

              hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.

                so sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

                  Keep going, Joseph. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together.
