I'm a school janitor living in Cleveland. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $2,650, 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 three weekday mornings.
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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

So sorry you're going through this. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Cleveland
Sending strength, Vivaan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Sending good thoughts, Vivaan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Bakersfield this morning. Blessings
hang in there. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Thinking of Cleveland
Thanks for sharing this, Vivaan. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Duluth
