Chimney Flashing Contractors Serving Indiana Homeowners
In many cases, the problem isn’t the chimney itself, it’s the flashing system surrounding it. Damaged, improperly installed, or aging chimney flashing allows water to penetrate your roofing system, leading to interior water damage, mold growth, wood rot, and costly repairs.
At T.R.U.S.T. Roofing, we provide expert chimney flashing repair and replacement in Indiana, helping homeowners throughout Indianapolis and Central Indiana protect their homes from water intrusion.
Whether you’re dealing with an active roof leak or replacing your roof, our experienced team ensures your chimney flashing is installed correctly and built to last.

What Is Chimney Flashing?
A waterproof metal system installed where the chimney meets the roof.
Chimney flashing is a waterproof metal system installed where the chimney meets the roof. Its purpose is to direct water away from this vulnerable area and prevent leaks.
A properly installed flashing system typically consists of:
- Step flashing
- Counter flashing
- Apron flashing
- Back pan (cricket flashing when needed)
- High-quality sealants and fasteners
Signs Your Chimney Flashing May Be Failing
Many homeowners don't realize their flashing has failed until they notice water damage inside their home.
Common Warning Signs Include:
- Water stains on ceilings or walls near the chimney
- Leaks during heavy rain
- Damp attic insulation
- Rusted flashing components
- Missing or loose flashing pieces
- Cracked sealant around the chimney
- Mold or mildew odors
- Deteriorating mortar joints

The Importance of Chimney Crickets
Large chimneys often require a chimney cricket, also known as a saddle.
A chimney cricket is a small peaked structure installed behind the chimney that redirects water around it.
Benefits of Chimney Crickets:
- Prevent standing water buildup
- Reduce debris accumulation
- Minimize ice dam formation
- Improve drainage around the chimney
- Help prevent future leaks
