Plumber needed urgently: Carlos's home isn't safe
Looking for a licensed plumber in Niterói to donate time or work at cost.

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 two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $600 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 $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 plumber and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Take care, Carlos. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Machakos this morning. Blessings!
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings!
Keep going, Carlos. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Take care.
Wishing you the best, Carlos. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
You're not alone, Carlos. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted.
