Roofing help wanted: Henrique's home in Rio de Janeiro
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Rio de Janeiro?
๐ง๐ท Rio de Janeiro, Brazil1,000 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Rio de Janeiro. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $860, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
Glad we found this place.
