Roofing help wanted: Winda's home in Depok
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Depok?
🇮🇩 Depok, West Java, Indonesia1,001 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Depok. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $470, 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 anyone handy who can help over a weekend.
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.
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Jaipur!
sending good thoughts, Winda. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Best of luck, Winda. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal. Greetings from London.
Sending good thoughts, Winda. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Hyderabad.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Accra.
Stay strong. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I hope August is when things finally get easier. God bless
So sorry you're going through this, Winda. Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
You're not alone, Winda. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings

Thanks for sharing this, Winda. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Depok.
