How to use "Roof" in context?
Roofs are one of the most important features of a house. They protect the house from the elements and they allow the house to be heated and cooled. A well-functioning roof can also keep the house dry. If a roof is not properly maintained, it can lead to leaks, damage to the house, and even structural failure.
