Two weekends of roof repair for Umar, a retired bus driver in Bogor
Could you spare two Saturdays to help repair a leaking roof in Bogor?
🇮🇩 Bogor, West Java, Indonesia79 views
I'm a retired bus driver living in Bogor. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $530, 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 anyone handy who can help over two Saturdays.
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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Love from Depok.
Sending love, Umar. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Siliguri so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Umar. Hope this works out for you. Love from Moscow
