Two weekends of roof repair for Vikas, a single mother of three in Nagpur
Vikas, a single mother of three, needs a few skilled and unskilled helpers for a 1-weekend roof repair in Nagpur.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India87 views
I'm a single mother of three living in Nagpur. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $560, 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 three or four volunteers 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.
Glad we found this place.

Take care. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Durgapur.
Stay strong, Vikas. Your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Jaffna.
Stay strong, Vikas. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
