I think it might be more ironic if the construction of the roof failed (than if he just, say, slipped).
It could also be ironic in the sense that roofing made him, and then a roof unmade him? Or is that just a whatsit... a conundrum?
Or could it be ironic in the sense that he made a freakin' billion dollars off of roofs, and had way too much money to need to be checking out any damn roofs himself? Least of all his own?

It's definitely comedy. It might be irony.
