Cleaned this floor with a Turbo 8 days ago.
Yesterday afternoon it decided to "tent" five minutes after she walked right over the same area, she claims. 8 feet b the 3.5 walkway area you see all sounded hollow but only the 8 tiles shown lifted.
I went out to inspect it today in the AM and returned in the PM with a tile setter bud of mine. he is going to replace the 8 tiles and use a flexible grout to help it from getting worse. The owner is selling and wants to fix it for le$$.
While the humidity and pressure from our cleaning may have lead to this, it was obvious that the problem already existed. When we removed a few tiles not a smidgen of Thinset was stuck to the concrete sub floor.
No clues what so ever that this could have happened.
Let this be a lesson to you guys who charge .30 a foot to clean tile.
You better be able to get your butt out of stuff like this once in a while.
not as easy as fixing a wick back of brown out.
