What are the proper materials and construction methods for installing a bathroom vent pipe in a standing seam copper roof? I recently had a standing seam tin roof replaced with copper and the contractor used a plastic boot over an existing pipe and pasted it to the copper with caulk. It looks horrible and the caulk failed with the first good freeze.	Martha Kelley 10/7/2005	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/6853/find/
Ideally, this would have a hand-made copper flashing put around the vent and either sealed or soldered into place. There may be some standard-size copper flashings available which would work, too.
