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

Saoirse has a burst pipe behind the wall, and can't afford a licensed roofer to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In May an inspector told me that my home has a burst pipe behind the wall. It's a safety risk for me and my three children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $710 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 $125. 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 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 peace, Saoirse. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Boulogne-Billancourt.

    • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Dublin.

      • Hang in there, Saoirse. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Spanish Town.

        • Sending love, Saoirse. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. God bless

          • wishing you peace, Saoirse. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
