Roofing help wanted: Bilal's home in Medina

Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Medina?

Medina
I'm a home-care aide living in Medina. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom 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 tiles and battens. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for a small crew who can help over three weekday mornings. 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 hope life is good to you.

    this could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.

    • Ritu N. Chopra

      thinking of you, Bilal. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.

        reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!
