Help Gabriele patch the roof before the rainy season
The roof at Gabriele's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

I'm a home-care aide living in Verona. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,700, 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 anyone handy who can help over one long 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck, Gabriele. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Wish I lived closer to Dallas so I could bring a meal
