Two weekends of roof repair for Long, a home-care aide in Laredo
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Laredo?
🇺🇸 Laredo, Texas, United States1,133 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Laredo. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,200, 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Wishing you peace, Long. I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Jalandhar donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Jalandhar.
you're not alone, Long. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
sending love, Long. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps
