Roofing help wanted: Yamuna's home in Bengaluru
Yamuna, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Bengaluru.
🇮🇳 Karnataka, India488 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Bengaluru. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $310, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

I can't speak highly enough about this helper. They were available when I needed them, supportive when I felt lost, and practical in their solutions.

Hope it all works out, Yamuna. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Greetings from Aurangabad.
