My mom lives in a mobile home. She is 78 years old. My sister and I live with her also. We are 53 & 52 yrs old. I do all her doctor appts. My sister helps her also. My question is, the pipes are so old that we get one fixed and then another leaks and so on. We were told we probably need to replace the entire plumbing underneath this place. People say get a hold of Action of Long Beach (Luke Heap). Can anyone recommend them or maybe Habitat for Humanity. I hope to hear from u soon!
Thank you.
In addition to the above resources, try HUD.org and Council on the Aging.
Are there any charitable companies or organizations that would assist us with a sink and toilet backup? We live in the Laurel Maryland area. My sister and I are on limited incomes due to cancer treatments.
She with multiple myeloma and I with breast cancer. I have been working on it for over two weeks. It's in the basement where my sleeping quarters are. I could really use the help. Sincerest regards.I would contact HUD.org, Habitat for Humanity or a local church.
I was told there is a sewer lateral defect in my underground plumbing outside of my house that I'm responsible for. I don't have any money. I have tried the H.E.L.P program but was told that I am not eligible. My water has been turned off, because the defect was not fixed. I am a single mother who has been assisting my aunt who passed away in October from cervical cancer. I am just trying to get everthing back together at my house and now this. I really need help.

Lateral sewer lines are the homeowners responsibility. You could try going to HUD.org, and clicking on your state.
I am on disability and for a week I have no drainage in my home. I can't effort any plumber.
How can I get some help? It's an emergency! Where can I look?

Are you on a septic? If so, maybe it needs to be pumped out. Or, if you have trees, perhaps you have tree roots in your line. In that case, there is a product you can put into your drains that kills the roots and opens the lines back up.
