Hello Vic,
If you have not done this already, it would be wise to include in any model
all nearby metallic objects such as gutters, downpipes, etc, *before* you
cut any wire. Such objects can have a profound effect on the horizontal or
vertical pattern (or both) of an antenna, as I am sure you know. If the
surface of the roof is metal, then a metal grid can be used to represent the
roof. If the roof is made of concrete, brick or stone, the roof becomes
more difficult to model. I am not certain that I know how to model
concrete, brick or stone objects correctly.

I am moving to an apartment on the top floor of a 10 story building. I
have access to the roof which has a 30' x 10' flat space. On one edge of
this space is a building 9' high with a flat roof of about 10' x 20'. I
can put up antennas on top of this little building and on the flat area
mentioned above.
