Roofing help wanted: Nusrat's home in Dwarka

The roof at Nusrat's home is failing; materials are donated and we need hands.

Dwarka
I'm a single mother of three living in Dwarka. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $290, 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 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Hang in there, Nusrat. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless

    • Best of luck, Nusrat. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.

      • I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
