I'm a retired bus driver living in Khon Kaen. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the bathroom is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,150, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the shingles and underlay. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for three or four volunteers 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 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.
Thank you so much.

So sorry you're going through this, Hathai. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 27 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
Wishing you the best, Hathai. It takes guts to ask. Well done. All the best.
