Roofing help wanted: Nalini's home in Sandton
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Sandton?

I'm a home-care aide living in Sandton. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $890, 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 three or four volunteers who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
