Roofing help wanted: Aline's home in São Paulo
Aline, a school janitor, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in São Paulo.
🇧🇷 São Paulo, Brazil124 views
I'm a school janitor living in São Paulo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $980, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. 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 work boots and a hat. 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

keep going. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to London so I could bring a meal.
Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Verona this morning.
