Just talked to Drew on the phone. We don’t live anywhere near him and as a new homeowner with a roof leak and receiving expensive repair quotes, I felt like I needed to navigate the situation with someone trustworthy and unbiased. Drew did just that. Thank you for your advice and help!

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Stevie I’m glad I was able to help you. And thanks for the awesome comment. If anybody calls me with a question number one I love talking to people and number two I will do my best to answer and help you out my promise

[@signmeupruss]

Nice video. I am so glad you highlighted having the bottom edge of the flashing free of shingles. My house is taller than the ones around me and I can see many of my neighbor's vent boots from my windows. In the winter, like now, the vent boots with no material at the bottom are free of ice, while the ones with shingles covering the bottom edge of the boot have ice build up. Sometimes after a few freeze-thaw cycles, the shingles to the sides will buckle up. Thanks for the video.

Another great video. Is that boot what you use on trailer roofs?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

No that is not what we use on a mobile home

[@Fehrfamilyhomestead]

Do you ever use tremco caulking? That is what we use here in Ontario and it works very well

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I’ve actually never heard of that in this part of the country

[@ronh9384]

Good video. Bought one today and will install tomorrow. What brand of knife was he using? I have never seen one that had two different blades like that. Thanks for your time!

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

You can buy that knife at Lowe’s or Home Depot it has both blades on it the other thing I want to say you don’t have to cut the shingles around the pipe boot when you install one of them. I just did it because of the Highwind in our area

That looks awesome! I have a 3" exposed cast iron pipe on my asphalt shingled roof. There is a 1/2" ring at the top of the cast iron pipe, making the width at the top 3.50". After that top ring, the actual pipe is 3" in diameter. Is the part that slides down the 3" pipe flexible to pass over the 1/2" ring at the top? If not, is there another product you'd recommend for my type of application?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Yes it is flexible enough to go over the pipe

[@mikea3552]

@@Drewsroofingandhomerepair Excellent! I will go buy one later today. Thank you VERY much for such a quick reply :)

[@arod7404]

Didn’t catch the name/type of caulk you used to seal the boot. You mentioned Lexell at the beginning but not sure if it was used on the boot.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Yes I use Lexell for everything

[@map20013]

I’ve been roofing dam near 30 years and never seen it before any chance you can recommend where the double blade knife comes from

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I’m not sure what you’re talking about. I am using a Stanley utility knife with a Stanley hook blade. The hook blade has a hook on each side of it. Is that what you’re talking about everybody knows what hook blades are.

[@map20013]

No I know what a hook blade is and yes it has a hook on both sides to me it looked like the knife itself held a hook blade and a straight blade at the same time I’ve never seen that before

[@PatriotAcresinTexas]

I wonder if this could also be used on a tin mobile home/modular home roof?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

It might if you seal it down good enough

[@benlomond8055]

So Drew a question I am going to use one of these boots for sure... I have the rotted out rubber on the original boot/flashing and this I can see is a fantastic design/solution. My only question is caulking that last piece in on the first example in the video... the caulk was applied to the top rim of the second to last piece adhering the final piece to the underside of the final piece's rim or "cap". In the last example the caulk was applied to the cylinder of the third and final "cap" piece then sliding that into the vent pipe adhering the last "cap" piece to the interior of the vent pipe? On that last example it seems if you go that route... when the roof is replaced eventually and that boot needs removing you'd have issues taking off the boot potentially damaging the original vent pipe? Seems like the first method is the better way to go... no?

[@RobbyMaQ]

I'd have to agree... When replacing the shingles down the road, it'd be easier to cut away the perma boot in the first example. 2nd example not so much

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Yes thanks for the question and yes. It is hard to get off after it’s been on there for a while but they will come off without destroying the pipe.

[@montyholland3357]

Good morning. Easy fix. I don't Know why people get so nervous about repairing them. .

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I agree

[@Aceofthedynasty]

Roof just started leaking a few days ago. I want to install these myself. But I'm nervous about getting on the roof. How do I stay secure on the roof is the real question??

[@montyholland3357]

@@Aceofthedynasty unless your roof has an extremely Sharp angled roof you don't need to worry about falling off. Just walk carefully, or crawl if heights bother you. The repair takes 5 to 10 minutes tops. If your still nervous. Just go buy you a bundle of rope find an anchor point opposite the side your climbing. And just tie off around your waist. Not as good as the safety harnesses but not500 dollars either, But effective on safety

[@Aceofthedynasty]

@@montyholland3357mine is pretty sharp. Used a Little Giant to get on the roofing above my garage earlier and damn near killed myself. Kicked the ladder out before regrabbing and safely getting down. Def not going back up without a safety device. The install looks crazy easy and that's what driving me crazy. Cause I want to do it but I also don't want to kill myself. Also I'd rather not be ripped off by someone who is going to charge me like crazy for labor for doing something so simple. That's the conundrum.

[@montyholland3357]

@@Aceofthedynasty starters, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, have assistance when climbing on the roof. ALWAYS have at least one helper. They secure the ladder for you so you don't have that issue. They also can hold a tieoff rope for your safety. Remember 2 is one, One is none. when doing anything on the roof, doing anything period 2people are better than one. Now the steeper your ladder Angle the harder it is to transition back on to it. Try to place the feet of the ladder if it has the length with the feet about 10 to 15 ft away from the base of the home. Greater the angle the easier it is to transition on and off. Also with the proper angle it's almost like stairs coming down. I face away when climbing down a ladder when it's spaced like this, just like with stairs. But this is why a second person is key to anchor the ladder. ALWAYS have a 2nd person helping. That's all the advice I have

[@taylors692]

Drew, what if my vent hole doesn’t have a pipe coming out of it? Noticed I had an open hole from an old vent!

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

It’s time to find out why. Get a roofer to look at that soo. It could cause problems

[@christph3118]

Cutting shingles around base as illustrated is not required according to the manufacturer.Its basically an installer choice but in no way necessary.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I like it

[@eamonaugustine1262]

Easy fix But that course of shingle should be over the flange to much of it is exposed.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Not at all If I put the boot down before that it wouldn’t be enough land hanging out

[@kaadeg]

The city made the long gone builder put in a 2ft pipe because the roof is almost flat. I love the idea of the.boot, but cant use the cap because of the excessive pipe length. What do i do?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Send me a picture 910-294-1761

[@RedGrayBeard1218]

What if my vent pipe is a little longer when I stick the 3” pipe part on it is still sticking out above the pipe

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

That is when you go and buy the pvc extension at lowes. You can add to the length of the pipe You can see 1 in the video 👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6qsiI2maKmdl7c

[@edwardjackson9871]

can you just install the boot on top of the shingles without cutting them out? what's the downside?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Yes just put it over the top you do not need to cut anything. That was just me taking extra unnecessary steps to be honest. It’s the best boot you’ll ever buy and the easiest thing to install

[@ATMAtim]

Take a paint brush with you to brush the crud out of the gap. Better, faster and less splinters.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

That’s a good idea I will take that in consideration next time

what do you use for caulking?

Lexell thank you for watching videos

[@TheFalcondan95705]

why cut the roof shingles? All we are doing is keeping Water from going to the top of the flashing seal..

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I cut the so the boot touches the old boot

[@nancyburge6338]

Would this work on a cast iron pipe that is 3 and 3/4 outside diameter?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

They sell them for just about every size and yes it will work on cast iron

[@nancyburge6338]

The part marked 3" won't go over my cast iron pipe. If I use only the part marked 2" it doesn't feel tight

[@65gtotrips]

Yea but doesn’t it reduce the ID of the vent pipe thereby compromising the effectiveness of the vent ?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

No not at all

[@boostedsti04]

How come you dont use roof cement?

[@boostedsti04]

Like black jack?

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I like Lexxel I think it’s a better product. I’m really never been a fan of what you call roof cement never

[@jasonalexander6417]

Looks good, but I don't see how that will stay on during a strong storm.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

Do you ever have one go bad on your roof get one and when you put it on there I promise you it will hold up to 130 mile an hour winds it’s the best pipe boot on the market

[@PermaBoot]

Jason - the Perma-Boot has grooves on the cap and pivot section of our product which allows it to grab the pipe securely and Drew added adhesive on top of that to help hold it down which does help when you in areas with high wind like he is. We are based out of Raleigh, NC and have had Perma-Boots on our houses without adhesive and the Perma-Boots have yet to come off even after hurricanes and losing shingles. The new 3n1 Design has an even tighter fit.

[@jasonalexander6417]

Hold up in a hurricane? That's good news. Will have to try it out.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

I promise it works. I will be doing a video on the way Perma Boot likes to see it installed soon. The way I did it was more for the Highwind and the storm area that I live in.

[@Drewsroofingandhomerepair]

And I am looking forward to making a new video on the easy installation of this boot like I said on my video I can’t say that I don’t overdo it because I do and it’ only for longevity I don’t want to ever have to go back. But even without the glue I don’t think you ever will come off i’m making a new video next week of how easy this thing is to install even without any caulking whatsoever. This boot literally installs in less than 30 minutes and can be bought at any Home Depot or Lowe’s perfect fit for any roof pitch.
