Roofing help wanted: Sophie's home in Gold Coast
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Gold Coast?
🇦🇺 Queensland, Australia917 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Gold Coast. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $5,750, 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 a small crew 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Keep going, Sophie. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Brampton this morning. All the best.
Wishing you peace. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Gold Coast.
