<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">What's the consensus on the best practice for flashing roof penetrations on existing (not new) comp shingle roofs?

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">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.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">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.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
