[RE-wrenches] Sealing roof vent

[Drake]

Hello Wrenches,

We are moving a roof vent. My plumber suggested that we cut the old 
one and cap it instead of having to repair the roof. I'm not sure a 
capped vent would be short enough to fit under the array.

What if we were to cut the vent off at the flashing level and plug 
the pipe. A rubber plug could be put in and topped with hydraulic 
water-stop cement. Neoprene roof sealant could be spread on top of that.

Has anyone tried anything like that? Are there any other good 
options? Can you see any issues with this method?

Thanks,

Drake
