I assume an eavestrough is plugged but the roof is so high I can’t get up there. I’m hoping it’s a coincidence that’s the same spot inside where the baseboard is cracked but I’m thinking not. Should I call a repair company first or insurance?
Is there an electrical outlet nearby? Maybe crack it open (breaker off first, I'm sure you know that but just in case) and see if you can take a peek around to see if there's moisture indications anywhere.
