Plumber needed urgently: Mathilde's home isn't safe
Mathilde has faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning, and can't afford a licensed plumber to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In June 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 elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,250 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 $175.
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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

You're not alone, Mathilde. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Gwagwalada so I could bring a meal
Thinking of you and your family, Mathilde. Shared this with my family. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
