They're liable, sure.
If their contract is with the the builder, though, that's the person that has the claim.
The householder's claim is against the builder that they paid to do the job (if I'm reading it correctly), that then appointed the roofer as a subcontractor.
It all depends who paid whom, and for what, as to who makes the claim.
If the roofer is an independent subcontractor then they are liable iirc
