Two weekends of roof repair for Nuria, a widowed grandmother in Madrid
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Madrid?
๐ช๐ธ Madrid, Spain671 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Madrid. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 4 places, and the kitchen is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,550, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the tiles and battens. 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 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

stay strong. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
