Kwaku, a retired bus driver, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 2-weekend roof repair in Accra.
🇬🇭 Greater Accra, Ghana394 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Accra. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $640, 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 4-6 people 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 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Wudil.
You're not alone, Kwaku. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Ikeja so I could bring a meal. All the best.
