Two weekends of roof repair for Sita, a home-care aide in Mississauga
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Mississauga?
🇨🇦 Mississauga, Ontario, Canada578 views
I'm a home-care aide living in Mississauga. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,100, 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 anyone handy who can help over three weekday mornings.
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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

You're not alone. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Mississauga.
Best of luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Cambridge donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Mississauga.
Sending strength, Sita. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
