Two weekends of roof repair for Ingrid, a night-shift nurse in Santos
Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Santos?
🇧🇷 Santos, São Paulo, Brazil692 views
I'm a night-shift nurse living in Santos. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,350, 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 anyone handy who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is to be comfortable with heights or willing to help from the ground. 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.

Wishing you peace, Ingrid. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care!
Thinking of you and your family, Ingrid. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Greetings from Cologne.
