[TowerTalk] Tower Placement

>Am I overly cautious or dealing with paranoia?

Yes, antenna elements will not be falling through the roof!  And buy an AlfaSpid worm gear rotator with no brake therefore no noise, if that's a problem.

>Will be putting up a guy-less tower, but will be using guys anyway. 

If the tower is designed to be self supporting then I would greatly not recommend guying it.  Self supporting towers are actually designed that way with no need for guys.  Guying a self supporter will prevent it from twisting like it wants to by design and could actually create a big problem.
