PIPE BOOT REPLACEMENT IN ABILENE, TEXAS
Stop leaks at the source. We specialize in fixing cracked, dried-out pipe boots and plumbing vent flashings across Abilene (79601-79606) and Taylor County.
WHAT IS A PIPE BOOT?
A pipe boot (or plumbing vent flashing) is a specialized roofing component designed to waterproof the area where plumbing pipes exit your roof. In Abilene, TX, the intense sun and fluctuating temperatures cause the rubber seals on these boots to dry out, crack, and deteriorate much faster than your shingles.
When a pipe boot fails, rainwater runs directly down the side of the pipe and into your attic, often causing ceiling stains in bathrooms or kitchens. It is the #1 cause of roof leak repair calls we receive in the Big Country.
SIGNS YOUR PIPE BOOT NEEDS REPLACEMENT
Don't wait for water to pour through your ceiling. If you notice any of these warning signs around your home in Wylie, South Abilene, or near Dyess AFB, call us immediately.
Visible Cracks
From the ground or a ladder, you might see the rubber collar around the pipe looking split, cracked, or completely missing chunks.
Water Stains
Yellow or brown rings on your bathroom or kitchen ceiling are a classic sign of a leaking pipe boot directly above.
Peeling Shingles
Shingles around the base of the vent pipe may be lifting or curling due to water intrusion underneath the flashing.
Age of Roof
If your roof is over 7-10 years old and you haven't replaced the boots, they are likely near the end of their lifespan.
