"without further inspection, you wouldn’t be able to tell you would need to inspect the roof and see if there’s any issues or inspect sealant or motor work and the windows are on the brickwork"

"It could be the roof, but water coming through the wall is more often caused by:
Failed pointing, cracks in the wall, or water running down from blocked gutters/flashings, not always the roof covering itself"

"You could have rasing damp witch can cause you lots of problems or simply just a crack in well or need repointing."
