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

Looking for a licensed roofer in Łódź to donate time or work at cost.

In July 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 $780 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 $85. 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 roofer 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.

      Wishing you the best. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.

          You're not alone, Rafał. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 36 people at work. Blessings.

            it takes guts to ask. Well done. After 24 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

            • Leah T. Moran

              Sending good thoughts, Rafał. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. All the best.
