Help Sachin patch the roof before the next storm
Sachin, a school janitor, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Dwarka.

I'm a school janitor living in Dwarka. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $290, 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 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 hope life is good to you.
