Roofing help wanted: Liliana's home in Cali
Liliana, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Cali.

I'm a single mother of three living in Cali. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,050, 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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Veracruz but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Cali.
Rooting for you, Liliana. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Take care.
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Mangaluru.
