Rained bloody heavily tonight. Went to check the attic on a whim and found the end of one joist (on the end wall) is wet. See attached.
It's not been wet for long as I went in the attic not that look ago and it was dry. Poked it with a screwdriver and the wood is still solid, so hopefully not a major leak and glad I spotted it early!
I've not been out to check the roof as it was dark, doing it first thing tomorrow morning. What's the most likely cause and could it be easily remedied? Hopefully just a loose tile or something.
Note, the property has cavity walls and I can see the joist ends before touching the external wall. All other joists around it (that I can see) look dry, so hopefully just an easy fix. Will hopefully find out tomorrow, just looking for some potential advice on what people think it might be.
