Help Denise patch the roof before the rainy season
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Houston?
🇺🇸 Texas, United States974 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Houston. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,000, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for 4-6 people who can help over a weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Thanks for sharing this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Hope it all works out, Denise. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
wishing you peace, Denise. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Thinking of Houston.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Benin City.
Best of luck, Denise. Hope this works out for you. Please keep us posted. God bless
