Two weekends of roof repair for Nga, a home-care aide in Cầu Giấy
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Cầu Giấy?
🇻🇳 Hanoi, Vietnam746 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Cầu Giấy. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $930, 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 a small crew 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Antalya donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Stay strong, Nga. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Take care
Thanks for sharing this, Nga. This could happen to any of us
