Ceramic and porcelain tile can shed surface spills while water from beneath reaches grout joints, perimeter gaps and nearby drywall. A dry looking tile face therefore says little about the bond layer or concrete below it. Call Slab Leak Cleanup Team when damp grout returns after wiping.
Warm tile or a damp seam can point to a hidden pipe problem. A plumber evaluates the source; the drying team evaluates the materials it soaked.
