Mind you, we never had a contract with the roofing company that performed the repairs.

He is working as an agent of the contractor and is under the umbrella of the original contract unless he specified otherwise to you verbally or in writing for your purposes. He likely has what would amount to a verbal contract with the contractor agreeing to do the work unless he signed something saying otherwise with the contractor. Every contract comes with an agreement of good faith and fair dealing, which would give him grounds to sue the contractor for breach, but not you.
