A Newer City, But Not Immune to Roof Trouble
Flowery Branch has grown up fast. The population has roughly doubled since 2010, and most of that growth arrived as master-planned neighborhoods, Sterling on the Lake chief among them, where the majority of homes went up after 2000. That makes for a younger housing stock than much of Hall County, but “newer” doesn’t mean “trouble-free.” Young roofs still take hail bruising, wind-lifted shingles, and the odd manufacturing or installation flaw, and on a subdivision full of homes built in the same few years, those issues tend to surface across the neighborhood around the same time. The right roof can also help you save on energy bills.
The rest of the city tells different stories. Down in the Old Town and Main Street district, restored homes from Flowery Branch’s early days as a 1903 railroad town carry the steeper pitches and more intricate flashing (the metal that seals the joints around chimneys, dormers, and valleys) that older roofs bring. Out along the Lake Lanier shoreline, larger custom builds with multi-pitch roofs and heavy tree cover face their own mix of debris and storm exposure. And storms here are no small thing: on May 2, 2025, an EF-1 tornado with 90 mph winds and half-dollar hail moved through the Lanier area, a reminder that a five-year-old roof needs a professional’s eye after a bad night just as much as a fifty-year-old one does. A new roof can also increase your home’s value.
Wherever your home falls in that mix, we know the local housing and we’ll tell you straight what your roof needs.

Questions Homeowners Ask
This is usually caused by strong wind gusts blowing at high velocity that lift your home’s roof shingles, rip them away, and leave your residence vulnerable to water damage from roof leaks and more wind lift.
Our contractors will work to replace or repair any broken shingles, patch up the torn membrane, and do a full or partial replacement if needed.
While rain alone seldom causes damage to your roof, water may go through pre-existing weak spots, such as cracked shingles and missing tiles, into your roof structure and house.
Water damage requires immediate attention. Our storm damage experts will start by determining the extent of the water damage. They will then conduct emergency repairs to prevent further damage by sealing leaks and repairing the flashing, roof membrane, and gutters.
Impact damage to your home occurs when high winds cause trees, equipment, or other heavy debris to fall on a roof and destroy the shingles, tiles, and roofing frame. This puts your house at the most risk of severe roof and structural damage.
For severe impact damage, we often need to replace the entire roof. However, if only one roof plane is damaged, we can also do a partial roof replacement or repair the roof if the type of damage is minor enough.
Hail damage is one of the most difficult to identify on roofs and can go unnoticed for a while. It often manifests as bent pipes, damaged vents, and missing shingles.
Our roof contractors will conduct a thorough inspection to uncover the extent of the damage and repair it.

Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to report storm-related damages and file a claim. Ensure that you have comprehensive images of every area the storm has affected, whether a structural component, a decorative element, or a piece of furniture. ProShield will provide you with a full photo report of your roof.
Be accurate and honest when filing a claim with your provider. If an insurance agent learns upon investigation that the information you provided is inaccurate, they may deny all or a part of your claim.
When submitting your claim, do not limit it to storm-related damages; add the expense of your interim living arrangements. Keep the receipt and present it to your insurer if you paid for any home repairs.
