Roofer needed urgently: Shweta's home isn't safe
A roofer is needed to repair a septic backup at the home of a family of 4.

In August an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $2,650 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you, Shweta. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
Stay strong, Shweta. Your post was clear and honest. After 14 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Saket.
Hang in there, Shweta. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Gujranwala.
Hang in there, Shweta. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. All the best
