Roofing help wanted: Dũng's home in Cần Thơ
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Cần Thơ?
🇻🇳 Cần Thơ, Vietnam185 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Cần Thơ. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $960, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending good thoughts, Dũng. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Dũng. Hope you get there. Love from Laredo.
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Cần Thơ. I'll ask around and let you know
Thinking of you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Chiang Mai!
