Help Tejas patch the roof before the autumn rains
Tejas, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Dwarka.

I'm a single mother of three living in Dwarka. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $690, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. 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.
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you, Tejas. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
