Project Overview
Replaced four deteriorated plumbing vent boots and reflashed an aging skylight on a 2000s colonial in Woodland Park. Homeowner had noticed a slow drip near the upstairs hallway after each storm.
Analysis
All four rubber pipe boots were cracked from UV exposure, which is the original leak source. The 20-year-old skylight curb flashing had corroded at the lower apron where water runs off.
Process
One-day project. Boots replaced in the morning, skylight flashing completed in the afternoon.
Outcome
All leak sources addressed. Homeowner tested with a garden hose soak after completion and no interior moisture appeared.
