Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Emery in Dundee
Could you spare a weekend to help repair a leaking roof in Dundee?
🇬🇧 Scotland, United Kingdom649 views
I'm a school janitor living in Dundee. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the kids' bedroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $3,850, 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 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 sturdy shoes, gloves and a willingness to work. 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 so much.

Praying for you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Wishing you the best, Emery. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
take care, Emery. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
thinking of you, Emery. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Dwarka.
hope things get better soon, Emery. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Bengaluru.
I hope things turn around soon. After 25 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Blessings
So sorry you're going through this, Emery. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Pasig so I could bring a meal
thanks for sharing this, Emery. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Dundee.
