Discuss Help! Kitchen flooded during floor tiling in the Canada Tile Advice area at TilersForums.com.

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!
