Two weekends of roof repair for Josephine, a widowed grandmother in Brampton
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Brampton?
🇨🇦 Ontario, Canada727 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Brampton. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,450, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Noida.
