Roofer needed urgently: Craig's home isn't safe
Looking for a licensed roofer in Springfield to donate time or work at cost.

In August an inspector told me that my home has dangerous exposed wiring in two rooms. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $1,300 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 $270.
The job should take about three 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
Thinking of you and your family. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hope things get better soon. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Indore so I could bring a meal
