Roofer needed urgently: Ines's home isn't safe

A roofer is needed to repair faulty wiring that trips the power and smells of burning at the home of a family of 3.

Mecca
In April 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 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 $90. The job should take about six 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

      Thinking of you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Accra
