Help Roman patch the roof before the monsoon
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Los Angeles?
🇺🇸 Los Angeles, California, United States747 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Los Angeles. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,300, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Take care
Stay strong, Roman. Hope you get there. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from Lviv.
take care, Roman. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Howrah!
Hope this works out for you. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Los Angeles.
Take care, Roman. Shared it with a few friends!
