Two weekends of roof repair for Jesse, a school janitor in Amsterdam
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Amsterdam?
🇳🇱 Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands1,091 views
I'm a school janitor 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 $5,750, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the roofing sheets and nails. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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 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.
Glad we found this place.
