Roofing help wanted: Kurniawan's home in Jakarta
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Jakarta?
🇮🇩 DKI Jakarta, Indonesia1,125 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Jakarta. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $440, 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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Good luck, Kurniawan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Varanasi
Thinking of you, Kurniawan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
