Two weekends of roof repair for Renata, a disabled veteran in Tlaquepaque

Could you spare one long weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Tlaquepaque?

I'm a disabled veteran living in Tlaquepaque. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $540, 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 a small crew who can help over one long 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 the best, Renata. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 8 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
