Hello Wrenches,<br><br>
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. <br><br>
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.<br><br>
Has anyone tried anything like that? Are there any other good options?
Can you see any issues with this method?<br><br>
Thanks,<br><br>
Drake <br><br>
