Roofing help wanted: Brooklyn's home in Syracuse
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Syracuse?
๐บ๐ธ Syracuse, New York, United States240 views
I'm a disabled veteran living in Syracuse. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,600, 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 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Good luck. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Stay strong, Brooklyn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted.
