What is a pipe boot and why does it fail?
A pipe boot (or 'vent boot') is the rubber or metal collar where a plumbing vent pipe exits your roof. The rubber gasket cracks from 10+ years of UV exposure and heat cycling. When it cracks, water runs down the vent pipe into your attic. Symptom: ceiling stain directly below a bathroom or kitchen. Cheap to replace, expensive to ignore.
