Volunteers needed to fix a leaking roof for Savannah in Birmingham
Could you spare three weekday mornings to help repair a leaking roof in Birmingham?
🇬🇧 Birmingham, England, United Kingdom627 views
I'm a widowed grandmother living in Birmingham. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 3 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $4,400, 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 a small crew 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
