Help Duy patch the roof before the next storm
Duy, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Cairns.
🇦🇺 Cairns, Queensland, Australia763 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Cairns. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,800, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Rooting for you, Duy. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Guarulhos but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Guarulhos.
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings!
