Roofing help wanted: Jide's home in Epe

Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Epe?

Epe
I'm a home-care aide living in Epe. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $500, 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 4-6 people 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 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'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    Thanks for sharing this, Jide. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Bergamo.

        Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
