Roofing help wanted: Tunde's home in Bonny
Tunde, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Bonny.

I'm a retired bus driver living in Bonny. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $670, 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 4-6 people 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Rooting for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
praying for you, Tunde. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Birmingham.
