    Roof Electrical Stack Boot
    On my house, the electrical service enters through a weatherhead and then down through the roof at the eave and into the meter can. The neoprene boot at the base of the stack is cracked. Do you know of a split or two piece boot that can be placed around that stack pipe without having to remove the weatherhead and main lines from the stack? Any other ideas on repairing? The cost of disconnecting at the pole to pull those lines is frightening.


    Thanks!!

    Roof Jack, Pipe Flashing, Pipe Jack

    What will they think of next?

Installing new DWV system, finally ready to cut the stack through the roof. The flashing/boot that I bought says "do not caulk". I assume that means don't use caulk around the neoprene gasket that seals around the stack pipe, makes sense to me. But what about the flat underside of the aluminum...
