Two weekends of roof repair for Hussein, a home-care aide in Amsterdam
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Amsterdam?
🇳🇱 Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands980 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Amsterdam. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,050, 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 anyone handy 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 sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you and your family, Hussein. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Kasarani
