I'm a home-care aide living in Pasig. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,100, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Take care, Patricia. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Pasig.
