The old tile floor in our master bathroom had a small crack in it.(The floor is made up of thousands of 1x1 inch and 1.5 x 1.5 inch tiles.)Well, the crack is now expanding about 1/3 of the way across the bathroom floor. Any suggestions on who could come out and evaluate this problem for us? We have no problem with the crack but want to be sure that there's no damage occurring as the crack progresses across our bathroom floor. Thanks.

How old is the tile, is it only cracking along the grout line and does the floor have a dip or hump in it?
If it's not dipped, humped and is only cracking in the grout line you may be in luck.
Like a windshield with a small crack that continues to grow sounds like what your floor is doing.

No idea about how old the tile is (house is from the 30's and tile looks similar in age) and it is NOT just cracking at the grout line. There may be small dip in the floor but it's hard to tell. KNow any honest people who I could have come out to take a peek?
