Hey guys,
What's the consensus on the best practice for flashing roof penetrations on
existing (not new) comp shingle roofs?
I don't like Oatey because the boot degrades quickly and even shaded under the
modules I don't like the idea of using an inferior product. The flashing on
Master flash is quite extensive; I don't like disturbing the established
roofing material as much as is required with Master Flash...nor do I like the
idea of having to trim so much of the flashing. Quick-mount is easy but I
really don't like the lack in height versatility plus the fact that there is no
decent way of retracting the lag bolt. I know there must be a better way.
I recall in the old days (old for me anyway) we used to just mount L-feet to
the shingles and on my own house I mounted stand-offs directly to the shingles
because I'm confident in that method. But, I need something with more insurance
when working on other people's homes.
William, what are you using these days?
