Hi, there could be a number of reasons depending on the pitch of the roof and which tile used etc, if its across the full roof and coming in at the window and not further up suggests its a gutter issue. The gutters could either be too low allowing water to enter between the tile and fascia. The gutter could be full and back flowing. The felt into the gutter could be pulling the water back inside. Thanks, Paul

Your leak is likely caused by failed flashing, blocked gutters, missing cavity trays, damaged external sealant, or cracks in the wall, so fixing it means sealing or replacing the faulty area and ensuring proper drainage
