Roofing help wanted: Teresita's home in Caloocan
Teresita, a night-shift nurse, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Caloocan.
🇵🇭 Caloocan, Metro Manila, Philippines828 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Caloocan. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $520, 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 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 so much.

Sending good thoughts, Teresita. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Quezon City.
So sorry you're going through this, Teresita. This could happen to any of us. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
Rooting for you, Teresita. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Bang Khen
Thinking of you and your family, Teresita. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
