Main water pipe

[Da Wilson]

That sounds like one thing after another. The foreclosure was bad enough and now your mom's dealing with a busted water pipe too. Since you didn't mention what state you're in it's hard to point you anywhere local.
If your mom has homeowners insurance, I'd have her call them if she hasn't already. Sometimes a burst pipe is covered, at least part of it, depending on what happened. If she doesn't have the money to get it fixed, maybe call 211 too and see if they know of any local groups that help seniors or homeowners with emergency repairs.
As for you and the kids, I'd start looking now for any family shelter or temporary housing, even transitional housing and they got a list here at https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... grams.html, in your area instead of waiting until your mom's house becomes unlivable. Also tell the kids' school what's going on if they're school age. Schools sometimes know about motel programs or other family resources that aren't easy to find on your own.

Had to move out of my rental home due to the fact that the rental agency failed to tell me that the house was in foreclosure. Me and my 3 kids are currently staying with my mother, but need to move out due to the fact that she has been having issues with a main water pipe leaking in her house. She currently has no kitchen and is in need of getting a few rooms redone due to a burst pipe that has caused water damage to her home.

Hello:
Thank you so much for providing this service and a point of contact. My name is Maria
and I am a 75 year old widow and my main water pipe burst. Recently pipes burst in my home, causing significant water
damage. My garage and kitchen wall was knocked out, as well as a portion of the ceiling in
my kitchen and living room, and one of the bathrooms. The cost, even with insurance, which
only covered a small portion of the drywall, is astronomical and I cannot afford to pay the rest
of the bill.
Ir is about to be fall now, and I am afraid that field mice will enter my home and start living in
the walls and destroy my home. I need desperately to get those walls plastered, installation
and a portion of my gutters is sagging and will be need to be repaired within the next two weeks,
or I will freeze in here and have too high a heating bill.
I would really appreciate it if you could help me with the repair or the repair costs and fixing the main water pipe. You may
contact me today. After today, on my landline
God bless you for all of the wonderful Christian work that you do.

Some community action agencies in Wyoming may offer home repair programs, loans, etc. Or maybe try weatherization. But that will not help with your water pipe. Maybe LIHEAP can also assist in Wyoming with the boiler issue. Anyway, maybe try those government programs, and find applications to Wyoming community action agencies as well as their phone numbers.

Hello, my wife and I are 56 years old and we need help with repair or replacement of old boiler heating system in our home. A water pipe is now also leaking. Wife on unemployment and I work as a child care provider through child care connections. We do not have the funds available to fix, repair, or replace the old steam boiler in our house, so we currently use electric space heaters to heat our 3200 sq. ft. home and worry about kids getting near them. We just got approved for SNAP and Medicaid last week. Our case worker informed us that some program may be available to help us with this need. So, that is why we our contacting you. Any advise or help with this matter, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

If you have a problem with water pipe, did you call the water company? Depending on exactly where the problem is they may be the party responsible for fixing it. Who said it was homeowners responsibility? Try this link for local programs.

You may want to look into weatherization. Also some community action agencies may be able to write a low interest loan for home repairs. While it is a loan, the interest rate will be very low and thus save you substantial money.

Need help regarding unexpected repair bill. Main water pipe leading from house out to the street has dropped away from street connection. Am told it is homeowner's responsibility. Quoted $6500 as cost to repair. Don't have anything
near that much to pay for it. Live in Omaha, NE and had to declare bankruptcy 6 years ago but have been current on all bills since then. Are there any programs, angels, anything to help with repair bill like this?
