I'm a home-care aide living in Surrey. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,300, 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 a small crew 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings
hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from Stockholm.
Hope it all works out, Arthur. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Surrey.
You're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Kitakyushu
Sending good thoughts, Arthur. I hope things turn around soon
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in Kilkenny this morning. Blessings
Rooting for you, Arthur. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Wishing you the best, Arthur. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. All the best
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Lapu-Lapu so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Surrey
it takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Bonny donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
praying for you, Arthur. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in San Francisco but we're thinking of you. Love from San Francisco.
