water seeps through
When water or damp passes or seeps through a wall, ceiling or roof into a room.
Hear it in context
Notice where the phrase sounds natural.
There's a leak upstairs and water's coming through the kitchen ceiling.
A: Why is the wall wet?
B: Damp's been coming through since the storm.
Fix the pattern
One small grammar move makes it sound right.
Not: Water is coming inside from the ceiling.
Say: Water is coming through the ceiling.
Use 'come through' for water passing through a surface, not 'come inside from'.
