Friendly reminder to check your roof jack vent flashings At the start of each winter, the rubber seal overtime gets dry and brittle and cracks and will create leaks in your home . If you can stand back and look up at your roof if it has the black rubber ring type seal on your roof jacks . get up there and inspect it or hire a qualified individual to get up there and inspect the rubber for cracking. They sell replacement rubber boot seals for this type roof jack flashings As seen in pictures below. The other type is where the sheet metal fits tight around the pipe and tape or mastic is often used to complete the seal.

If we dont start getting younger people in the trades, teaching them skills, this is how roofs are going to look in the near future. Their idea of construction is blurred . And its not just them, it started a generation or two before them. A trade is something you can do to trade your skill for food when stuff hits the fan. A skill that gives a feeling of accomplishment from crafting with the hands ... Teach a kid. Take a kid to work (like, your kid not one from the park lol ). Slow down and talk to a kid. Teach them the old school ways of hard physical work is the most rewarding.

FYI As of the month of September 2020 all lumbers yards have doubling prices on building materials/lumber due to covid and less workers at the lumber mills and with so many fires in the states more demand than supply. Things are going to take a little longer and be more expensive.
