Roofing help wanted: Lúcia's home in Uberlândia
The roof at Lúcia's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.
🇧🇷 Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil314 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Uberlândia. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,850, 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 4-6 people who can help over a 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.

Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up. Love from São Paulo.
Best of luck, Lúcia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Depok this morning. Thinking of Uberlândia.
