About Creech Roofing
Brian Creech Roofing, LLC is a roofing company based in Elm City. Greenville and the rest of Pitt County are also served by many other roofers listed on the National Roofing Directory.
Where roof leaks usually start
Flashing at walls and chimneys
Step and counter flashing that has pulled loose, rusted through or was never installed correctly.
Pipe boots
The rubber collars around plumbing vents crack with age and sun exposure.
Valleys
Water concentrates where two slopes meet, so worn or poorly cut valleys leak.
Missing kickout flashing
Where a roof edge dies into a wall, a missing kickout sends water behind the siding instead of into the gutter.
Skylights and vents
Seals and flashing kits around penetrations fail over time.
Describing the leak to a roofer
- Where the stain or drip appears inside the house
- Whether it leaks in every rain or only in wind-driven storms
- How long it has been happening
- Photos from the attic, if it is safe to take them
A simple repair or a bigger problem?
One failed pipe boot is a small repair. Staining in several rooms, soft decking or leaks in many places suggest the roof needs more than a patch. Get the diagnosis in writing with photos.

Roof leak questions
What is the most common cause of roof leaks?
Failed flashing and cracked pipe boots are among the most common, followed by worn valleys and damaged shingles.
Why does my roof only leak in heavy storms?
Wind-driven rain can push water under shingles or behind flashing that stays dry in normal rain. Tell the roofer exactly when the leak happens.
How much does a roof repair cost?
It depends on the cause and how hard it is to reach. Get a written quote that includes photos of the problem and what will be replaced.
