My father had decided to move to Florida after he had retired. He had always wanted to go to a place where it was warm all year around. I was very nervous because of the hurricanes that always go through. He decided to have a house built instead of buying one. I told him about hip roof construction and the benefits it had. I was very grateful to hear that it was one of the best roofs for bad weather, especially in Florida. After he did some research on the roof, he was convinced as well. I still worry about him being down there with the hurricanes but I feel a lot more comfortable knowing he has a good roof over his head.
