Help Seamus patch the roof before the autumn rains
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Dublin?
🇮🇪 Dublin, Leinster, Ireland243 views
I'm a school janitor living in Dublin. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,350, 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

hope it all works out, Seamus. I hope things turn around soon. After 19 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
So sorry you're going through this, Seamus. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Mississauga
Best of luck. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update!
Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 13 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
good luck, Seamus. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
