  7. There are a lot of different ways to install this pipe flashing. This is not the only way. But this was the best way I thought to replace that old rusted out pipe flashing , which was nailed in .
    Pipe flashings are typically nailed in with galvanized EG nails. or copper nails if pipe flashing were copper.
    How do you install your pipe flashings ? If you did not nail in your pipe and vent flashing they would blow off in the wind, and cause a leak.
    The flashing needs to be nailed in with galvanized nails.
    the length of the nail would depend if there was an open beam ceiling or not.
    This roof has not leak since we repaired this pipe flashing over 2 years ago.
    Cheers

  8. No de-granulating … Nails on torch on? What happens if they back out from the expansion/ contraction of the building… Stop posting how to vids .. There is most likely people watching these who want to know the proper way to do a repair.

  9. Hi Cameron, thanks for watching the video.  Did you like the time lapse portions ?
    It definitely helps cut down on the time it takes to watch video and to upload video.
     This was a great little repair. The home owner was so happy to get there roof fixed.  The leak was right above their stove. Look for us on our next up coming episodes of Cover That Roof.   Cheers Rob
