Is this the plumbers or the roofers fault?
On this new construction home inspection the plumber ran the vent pipe through the middle of the roof valley. Once viewing this from the attic access it was easy to understand how this happened. But it should have been corrected once the boot was installed and they saw the pipe was in the valley.
You don’t want any penetrations in a valley and certainly not a vent pipe.
City inspectors didn’t catch this and it wouldn’t have been caught without walking the roof or using a drone.
This is not a complex fix but needs repairs.

This new construction home home was lacking proper flashing along the roof line. This was noted on the new construction final inspection and not corrected by the builder. At the one year warranty inspection the stone had a long crack up the middle of the wall. Kick out flashing is very important where a roof line terminates along side a wall. The kick out flashing will help to push water, which...

    This turd sandwich starts with the architect putting the toilet under the valley, and not leaving sufficient room to redirect the vent. Then it becomes the superintendent fault for not catching it and RFI-ing the designer. The lazy plumber fails to point it out, the careless carpenter sheets over it, and roofer, just didn't care. It takes a team effort to serve up a turd sandwich like this, the question now is, whos going to eat it?

    Plumber here: Not so fast on automatically blaming the plumber, there’s a small chance that vent pipe was already in a good location, then there was some last addition put on for a covered porch, etc. but if this was entirely framed, and no changes after the rough in, then yes, it’s the plumber.

    When people are getting paid by production, correcting other people’s mistakes takes money out of their own pockets. So a bad drawing leads to a misplaced vent and then a future roof leak. Who’s wrong? Everybody. Especially the plumbing inspection.

      @@coreyfranco7060 A corner collects and directs water onto the same path. This makes it go faster and have more pressure. That means more water squeezing itself into any leaks that form. A sealed hole like around the vent is still more vulnerable to leaks than shingles because the overlap of shingles prevents backflow, but the hole there does not. This makes it more likely for a leak to form in an area where leaks are more damaging. So, uh, common sense?

    A Nashville home inspection found a live electric wire hanging in the yard. This appeared to run to an old shed or some similar structure which had been removed. This unoccupied home had the utilities off for a while. Then when the electric was turned on by the power company, this wire was energized and hanging in the yard for anybody to walk in to or touch. This is another reason to leave your children at home when shopping for homes. Also be extremely cautious when checking out unoccupied homes. You never know what you could encounter. This wire was found prior to the arrival of the client and realtor, and was able to be disconnected at the breaker panel. daleyhomeinspections.com #mountjuliethomeinspectors #nashville
