Leaking Ford Focus boot

Hi all, Quick question.... My 12 focus has a leak in the boot. Reading online a lot of people are blaming the vents behind the rear bumper but I'm not sure in this instance Would your run of mill body shop be able to sort this?

If it's a hatchback, mine at the time was letting water in under the roof rail clover just above the the rear passenger door. Lifted the black rail cover and sealed with silicone or automotive sealer. Sorted mine at the time. 08 focus.
