Roofing help wanted: Kazuki's home in Setagaya
Kazuki, a home-care aide, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Setagaya.
🇯🇵 Setagaya, Tokyo, Japan81 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Setagaya. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,400, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for a small crew 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 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

So sorry you're going through this, Kazuki. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
Thinking of you, Kazuki. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Entebbe this morning. Love from Entebbe.
Hope it all works out, Kazuki. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Toulon
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Setagaya.
Wishing you peace, Kazuki. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Malmö.
