Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice.
I started tiling my kitchen floor yesterday afternoon (first tiling attempt) and managed to get around a third of the tiles down.
I came down this morning to find water all over the kitchen floor! I haven’t found the source yet but suspect dishwasher leak.
The tile adhesive (Mapei flexible) hasn’t had nearly the full 24 hours to set, but the tiles don’t seem to move when I wiggle them. Tiling was directly onto concrete floor and tiles are porcelain Wood plank effect.
Should I lift them up and start again? (Once leak sorted). Please help!
Many thanks in advance!

Id be tempted to leave them be until the floor is fully dry and try and lift one then. If you have primed the floor and laid them properly you might be ok.
