PERMA-BOOT can be installed on any home that uses standard 1-1/2 inch, 2 inch, 3 inch or 4 inch vent pipe boots on almost all roof pitches.

PERMA-BOOT covers the existing vent pipe boot to prevent leaks that allow water to flow into your attic and cause water damage to the ceilings, interior walls, and sheetrock in your home.

A traditional pipe boot repair is a temporary fix and lasts only as long as the new pipe boot or rubber gasket (about 3 to 7 years under normal weather conditions) before another repair is required. PERMA-BOOT is the only solution guaranteed to last for 30 years and does not require you to remove the old pipe boot or replace any shingles on your roof.

The problem with a metal boot flashing is that it still relies on a rubber gasket to seal it to the vent pipe. The rubberized seal is the most likely part to fail so a metal boot flashing does not really fix the problem. PERMA-BOOT covers the seal and prevents water from entering your attic at the vent pipe so it actually solves the problem.

PERMA-BOOT is a straight-forward and affordable solution with minimal work involved. A lead boot with a cover is meant to last a long time, but it is more expensive and will most likely require hiring a professional to install it. The installation requires you to replace the old pipe boot and often the surrounding shingles as well.

If you can reach the vent pipe boot safely you can install the PERMA-BOOT without the use of additional tools or roofing tar. Simply slide the PERMA-BOOT over the top of the existing boot and you are done. A urethane sealant can be used at the base to help guard against high wind events and storm conditions if desired.

PVC pipe can become brittle from years of exposure, so handle it carefully. It could snap if you pull on it.

When installing the Perma-Boot on 1-1/2 inch (inside diameter) pipes, the boot will not fit snugly around the pipe. This is normal, the cap will secure the boot.

If your PVC pipe moves downward while installing the boot, you may need to pull the pipe up while sliding the boot down so that the boot stays in contact with the roof.

Please read our list of Safety Warnings prior to installation.

The base of the Perma-Boot is made in two pieces - connected by a swiveling joint. This joint allows the boot to adjust to various roof pitches - from 3/12 (almost flat) to 12/12 (extremely steep).
