Roofing help wanted: Bruno's home in Bogotá
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Bogotá?
🇨🇴 Bogotá, Bogotá D.C., Colombia909 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Bogotá. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $570, 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 three weekday mornings.
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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope things get better soon, Bruno. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Bogotá.
So sorry you're going through this, Bruno. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Johannesburg
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Enugu.
