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

In July an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $230 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 $15.
The job should take about four 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 hope life is good to you.

Praying for you, Nebiyu. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
