Rainy-season Leaks: Roof, Facade, or Pipe?

Marks after rain

If dampness follows rain, inspect roof junctions, facade cracks, windows, and drainage. Water travels along beams and slabs, so the indoor mark may not match the entry point.

Marks after water use

Dampness after showering or sink drainage may involve joints, drains, or waterproofing. Growth without rain or use may justify supply-pipe testing.

Test by area

Photograph and record timing. Controlled spray tests must isolate one area rather than wetting every junction together.
