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.
The valve may stop new flow, but it cannot remove water already inside flooring. A cleanup crew handles extraction and measured drying.
