        "text": "You need professional repair or replacement when tiles become loose, sound hollow, or exhibit persistent mildew that indicates sub-surface leaks. A hollow sound when tapped signals that the thinset mortar has lost its bond to the substrate. Cracked grout joints, spongy floor areas around the toilet or tub base, and persistent damp smells indicate water is getting behind the installation. Addressing these symptoms promptly prevents deeper structural rot and extensive water damage to ceiling framing below.",
