A roll off roof is only useful if it does 3 things:
Shield you from the wind. Any wall will do that.
Shield you from the neighbor's security lights. Make sure the walls are high enough for that.
Allow the scope to be parked in a reasonable location. I've seen lots of roll off roofs where the owner is trying to save money and make them too short, and then have to park the scope in some very specific, very weird direction to clear the roof. That's all fine and good as long as it actually parks perfectly, EVERY TIME.
