Through the roof mount

I know that sounds silly. I temporarily installed our antenna about 14 months ago.. I need to do it correctly and now have the bug up my crawl to do so. We have very tall trees blocking reception on the side of the house that would be best for the mount so in order to get reception I had to mount it lower on the eave on the side of the house that has a street light power line close by.

I have had intentions of mounting it on the roof of the carport to stay clear of the power lines and get the antenna up in the air a bit more. Being a carport is there anything wrong with just going through the roof and mounting a 5-6' mast to the joist? I tend to over think things but looking at my situation it seems the easiest step. The mast could be sealed with a boot. I have a Clearstream4 antenna but do not have the stock mast to go with it.


Thanks
