Is there a roofer who can donate a few hours in Salvador?
José has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In August an inspector told me that my home has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $840 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 $35.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this, José. Your post was clear and honest. God bless.
wishing you the best. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Salvador.
Hang in there, José. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out.
