- Leaking vent pipe collar repair. Roof over done bad. It looks like someone tried to do a pipe collar repair previously. Tar is not a good roofing leak fix!
It appeared they cut shingles short and did not tucked them under the pipe flashing enough. We removed the plastic pipe boot to install an aluminum one. Please hit the thumbs up button and subscribe to the Grand Roofing channel, so you don't miss another video.

Dude, your making our industry better by teaching younger men the right way to do it!
Good morning I manage a roofing company in Visalia, California and every morning while having my wake up cup of coffee, I watch a portion of the news and then I finished by watching your how to videos on Roofing and I get so much out of your videos. They are so informative. I hope you continue to put out these videos. Great job.
Brother you make it look easy. Great job!
I've been watching your videos, and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge and experience.
Solid job dude you helped me out immensely. Sorry to rub it in that I'm in San Diego and don't have to deal with cold like you
This guy really lets the comments get to him.
Man, you make it look so ease and of course that is what you do everyday. i been watching your videos for a while cause i need to repair my roof, we had a leak last year during winter coming thru the bathroom fan. I went up to the roof and everything is very soft around the vent thing. thank you for showing us how to do it the right way. 🤙
I keep dull blades in my knife too. Why do we do this? Excellent job. Thanks for posting. And yeah, everyone's a critic, especially everyone who's never worked on a 35 degree roof
I think you are a very amazing person to give good content to other people so they can learn to do a good job I think you do a great job and I thank you for all your videos keep up your hard work thank you so much
Thank you so much. I am in HVAC and I wanna do this right. Your videos are helping a lot. Thanks again.😊
Very helpful videos, a real boon to those of us who don't know this stuff.
Great video. After watching for about 20 minutes I started getting extremely dizzy, realized it’s from your GoPro head cam.
Thank you for taking time to teach and improve the lives of others. I am so thankful for people like you that share their knowledge.
Your fix looks a million times better and professional. Can't even believe people do that stuff lol
AWESOME! I wish you'd inspect and fix my roof.
I HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT AFTER DIY MY OWN, THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE
Great job man it's good to see somebody thinking when they're working, trying to do the best job they can for the customer instead of just trying to get the hell out of there. You got my respect, that's hard work being up on a roof swinging a hammer in the cold wind.
Thanks!
As a young woman, I was always interested in construction. I so wish that I had pursued that career instead of office work. But my high school rejected any girl learning industrial or the trades (1970's), so I took business courses. Watching your videos, I wish I was young again, because I am so drawn to roofing. I may not be strong enough to lift the shingle bundles up a ladder, but would have enjoyed the rest of the process.
Always fun to be up on a roof, in the breeze, on a cool winters day. Thanks for the video.
Amazing videos! Thanks to you I was recently able to do a repair on my roof that before watching your channel, I thought was an impossible task to do as DIY,. Now I"m hooked on roofing! Even now that I've already done the repair, I am still watching your videos! Btw, not to be picky, at but at 38:52, you forgot to seal one of the nails under that shingle!
I think you are doing an awesome job!
And remember to never take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from!
Thank You so much for this video! I love how you educate and explain everything that you’re doing, your an amazing teacher!! I especially love that you also mention that there are multiple ways of doing things and that not only your way is the correct way! I wish you much success
Great job, thanks for the video and discussion on the right way of doing it and way.
I have to say I get the sniveling nose...that is a guaranteed in our region...really glad of all your videos...as I will be installing a grizzly mini stove in my shop...made in Canada...so now I know how and where to properly pry up and install and replace the shingles..keep up the great video's.
Next leak will be from downslope edge of the roof vents where they buried the flange UNDER the shingle instead of placing on TOP! Very neat and clean repair!
Good amount of roof cement and it’s good to go 😂
Having repair done at present. this video helped me to understand what should be done correctly, Seriously question capabilities of my contractor. I am 83 yo widow and wonder if I have picked the right company.
Thanks for creating content. I appreciate you sharing your work.
Great job looked a lot better and professional I don’t understand it took them just as long to do it wrong when they could have just as easily replaced it from the get go.
Thanks for the video
Thanks for this video. I need to do a similar job soon and this is incredibly helpful!
It’s great to see a true craftsman doing a great job!
Thanks for the great work you do!
Love the content bro! Been watching for about a year now and all your content is informative and even entertaining. Don’t listen to the haters, you’re awesome and so is your work.
If you get a chance I would like to see how you flash and work around a gable/fascia meeting into a ridge. I have my own way of doing it but it looks messy sometimes and I haven’t been able to find anything on it.
When it comes to putting ice and water around the pipe I take the ice and water shield put it on top of the pipe very lightly tap the outer part of the pipe all the way around until it makes a tight perfect circle and somewhat water tight even when the pipe boot goes bad
Everyone does things differently tho
Nice video
I always make sure to have ice and water touching the roof deck. So when I run my synthetic out, I cut maybe a 1ft piece and put it over it, just a bit bigger than the actual pipe boot. Then when I go to shingle, I put the boot on, sometimes I add in a small thin piece of shingle on the sides to cover the flange fully, cutting a small triangle off the sides closest to the hole, but making sure I have atleast two shingles under/cut around, then put ice and water on the sides and top, sandwiching it to the ice and water below it on the sides. Waterproof/ sheds water as much as possible, only flaw would be the actual boot material itself.
Great video! A lot of detailed, fact filled, helpful information and tips. Thank you.
Box cutter or as we in the Great White North call them exacto blades...gotta have plenty on hand
Don’t even mention the haters or people making dumb rude comments. You have to ignore them. As one of your fans it doesn’t bother me what they say and it shouldn’t bother you. Ignore the trolls and they’ll have no reason to speak. I love your work! Keep it up
Thanks
Thank you, I appreciate all your videos.
This is a master at work
Wow you really do great work
Great job man 💪 keep up the good work and videos
1 year in roof estimating and take a pleasure in learning / looking out for certain things. Great work!
Thank you!
GOOD lesson on a roof repair. I do kitchen vent hoods a good bit and I usually have no idea what im doing. I dont think my work is as bad as some of em i have seen you fix.
That's a storm chaser job, people need to hire local contractor to get a quality job done!!!
Just want to say I enjoy your content! Keep up the good work and God Bless!
Thank you!
Squirrels love the lead pipe boots here in N Al. They will chew any lead that is exposed . Chewing the swagged top will cause a leak sooner than you would think. Most roofers here have went back to the standard galv boot. Some Lumber Yards have quit stocking them. Something to consider.
Thank you, I thought I have seen some that we have removed with chewed marks before.
Watched the entire video with without skipping.
Lmao this is the only roofer on TH-cam I’d watch besides the guy that have huge contracts
good job
Professional job dude .Well done!!!!
I could watch you all day. You are brilliant. Keep up the excellent work. Scottish John
Wish you would have shown putting the second boot on.. GOOD video!!!
I think I did record it but I was just very concerned because this video is already pushing 40 minutes. I guess I could always make a second shorter video. Don't want to annoy people with repetitive videos though.
Thanks for the video I learned a few things from it and many other things from your other videos, one never buy a house that has been shingled over an existing roof two never use tar and three when putting sealant around the top of the boot have the shingle ready, cut and in place so it just sits down on it instead of smearing if put in after. Your videos are very useful especially for amateurs like me I've been doing a lot of renovation on my house and I've made a lot of the mistakes that you pointed out in your videos and I feel like watching your videos I can fix those mistakes and I won't have issues later on down the road. And it's just really cool to watch your videos I like in detail videos where the whole process is shown instead of skipping ahead because there's always that weird issue that comes up in between and if your an amtuer like me you will have no idea if what you do is right or not.
Roofing tar is good for a few things, just doesn't have good uv protection as it will degrade it fast. So if you use it, only use it if it's for holding shingles down or in a area where sunlight isn't directly hitting it.
Greetings from Niagara Falls, NY! Been enjoying your videos for a while. Keep safe, and keep them coming!
Thank you! Actually considering doing a collaboration with a roofer just across the falls from you. He's just up in Canada from Niagara falls. Schoen Roofing, have you heard of them?
@@GrandRoofingInc I have not, but I also haven't heard of half the contractors on this side of the border either! Now you just have to wait for the border to reopen!
Love what your doing. I don’t have any roofing skills but I’m getting an education watching you working. Thanks for the help I know a little more about what’s required to work on a roof. And you are teaching me your method to work the repair, your process is standard or should be setting the standard for everyone else. I’m going to get some work done on my roof but it’s flat do you have any plans to make videos for flat roofs?
The k you man. You are very profesional and I learn a lot
Great video. Very informative and it's great that you give very informed opinions. I look forward to your videos.
Thank you!
Enjoy the videos bro! New subscriber here!
Thanks for the tutorial, great vid
I love your videos man they are very helpful i work on roofs alot and very helpfull
Do a video on measuring a extremely cut up roof with crazy shapes. In Buffalo NY as a salesman there are so many roofs with crazy shapes and angles to measure
I tried the side pull to pop the seal on some tamko over the weekend. A 1 shingle repair turned into a 5 shingle repair. I stopped the side pull on shingle tear #2 but tamko just sucks so much
I use ice shield when prepping the roof and over top the boot when it's installed. I overkill the shit outta my jobs
Better to overkill
Great roof work my man keep it up👍
You should make a vid of every single thing you need to know about shingling
Great job bro , for real , can tell u take pride in your work , I’m a plaster and mason 36 years , I’m thinking about starting a small roofing company , do u have time to reach out to me for some questions ?thanks god bless
No reply , huh , thanks bud !!!
Brilliant video very informative keep up good quality work.
Side Note: I've been a licensed Contractor since 1967 and I think you are doing a great job with your channel. Hey what was the temp on that job? Were those gloves warm?
I don’t even hear the sniffles, you sound like my husband he’s always working in the cold.
He's back!
Cold shingle cutting sux, I like to use my multi tool with a hook blade, works great
When cutting around a boot o like to use an old pair of snips that I don’t care get dull. They cut the shingle no problem. Give it a try!
You do great instructionals and personally I thank you very much. Always a 👍.
I am in PA and in my area they will not guarantee their REPAIRS. I am a plumber and to me that simply means you CAN'T back your work because even YOU (the roofer in this case), don't believe in YOUR supposed skill. Am I wrong???
I guarantee my repairs yes.
Great video, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
That shit looks miles better than before
A nice repair 👍👍
DUDE YOUR AWESOME
👍 Good Job!
real master
My only recommendation from a non-roofer is when you seal under the boot flashing, leave a little opening at the bottom of the U-shaped sealant so if water gets by above it can escape. My philosophy: assume water will get were it shouldn't be
btw enjoy your videos, learned bunches
Yes very true, that's why I tried to say when your ceiling the shingles back down to just put some dabs especially near key way. Otherwise you could trap it or divert it. On this application you have the actual hole in the decking. So if anything gets an above it it's going to go in the hole where the pipe comes through.
You should use the Stanley roofing knife on Amazon I have been using them for a long time and they are better then the one you run
Thanks, I'll I have to try that when my next one takes a crap.
My favorite knife for roofing is a delphin knife. It’s shaped like a dolphin which keeps your fingers away from the shingles and is fixed blade so the blade won’t ever slip out
I always apply ice guard over my exhaust pipe flashing to cover any nails
Of course you mention that right after i post
37:24 heck even the hot humid summer weather will cause my nose to run like a hose own here in FL; the pollen is so bad and my allergies suck, lol, so for me and you having the sniffles…..no worries👍🏻: so not a big deal as many many more things out there that are issues, than a nose that runs and feet that smell; which, you’d think the nose would smell wouldn’t ya😉😂
Good video, but you're letting the YT comments get into your head too much. Can't please them all, and some of them don't even want to be pleased. Too much mocking of armchair champions sours the video and distracts from otherwise great content.
You're right, I need to just let them comment and appreciate the engagement for the YT algorithm.
@@GrandRoofingInc I think that would be my biggest problem - letting the nasty comments get to me. I certainly applaud you sticking with it and putting out new videos. They help me to gain "experience". I learn a lot by listening to your comments, and seeing the examples of bad work, or of good work. Thanks!!
@@GrandRoofingInc I was thinking the same. You're clearly someone that does business with integrity. I can't even begin to say how much that means these days. When I watch you're videos I wish you could take care of my roof. You're The Man!! Besides, most people don't scroll through very many comments. My biggest indicator is likes/dislikes.
Great video, dude!
thx got some good ideas but here in EU we got a bit diffrent systems for vents.
If you wouldn't mind if you get a chance and you have a picture of them, send one to our Facebook page Grand Roofing Inc thanks!
How did you decide to use a flanged seal rather than the simple cover boot that goes over the existing seal?
Next time take a bucket onto the roof to put pulled nails into and shingle pieces into .
You said something about putting on a second boot to protect the rubber from the sun but you didn't show that.
Like the guaranteed work performance how much do you usual price those would lime to know if you dont mind grand roofing
Yea, the same people complaining about snot is the same people that will blow their nose at the table in a restaurant. You know, when they actually leave mommy's and daddy's basement.
Lol
Can you do a video on the bidding process?
Don't you have lead ones with a rubber centre section collar they make a water tight seal . Not one for the shingles tho slate or tile much better :)
Good video brother! That sticky caulk is the worst! Plastic cement?
Yes it was some sort of wet cement.
Hey Bro - would you say it is possible to install a vent on a ridgeline and that would be acceptable?
Good job but I would never have my roof replaced or fixed In January In NE Ohio
As a layman, why is tar a bad leak repair? It seems like it would be! Apparently... lots of people make that mistake!?
To make the boot pipe flashing last longer
They sale a rubber collar at Home Depot adding a second one to the pipe flashing
Well last longer, extra protection
Question for all you people watching out there how much would you charge for this type of repair
Nice job. What state u live in ?
I had been wondering why you dont replace with lead boot. I've been there where they don't want to pay, but to me it seems smarter to spend 30 bucks more and get something that has a longer life expectancy.
I agree with you yes lead boots would be better. This one was actually leaking not because it was a cheap boot but because it was installed wrong. As long as they are tucked under the pipe boot far enough and not cracked they can work. I prefer aluminum because they don't crack. I actually stopped by a job I did 13 years ago to see how well the aluminum boot held up, more specifically the rubber part around the pipe. It is holding up very well and I plan on trying to shoot a video so people can get an idea of how they hold up.
Yeah, it does not matter how good a quality product you use if its installed wrong
How come you never add any of your new installs ever on here
It because that roof has 2 layers and i bet the people who roofed it went to fast
You are so correct, I was thinking how many would watch this and say, come on get with it, you are taking to LONG, but getting RIGHT takes time, not a McD's drive thru. I would have him roof my house any day.
