Help Randall patch the roof before the next storm
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Bristol?

I'm a widowed grandmother living in Bristol. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,650, 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 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Pittsburgh.
hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Savannah.
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Leeds but we're thinking of you.
Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Gda艅sk this morning.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 31 people at work!
sending strength, Randall. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
good luck, Randall. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending good thoughts, Randall. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Bristol.
Hope it all works out. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Ikeja!
