I'm a disabled veteran living in Jakarta. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $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 three or four volunteers 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 sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted
Sending good thoughts, Indah. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
