Transverse Tile Rupture
Transverse Tile Rupture
Transverse tile rupture refers to tile cracking or breaking across the floor, often appearing as a continuous or irregular line through multiple tiles. In homes with concrete slab foundations, this type of flooring damage can sometimes be associated with movement or changes within the foundation.
What to Look For
- Cracks extending across multiple floor tiles
- Tile cracks that follow a noticeable line or pattern
- Broken or raised tiles
- Cracked grout along the same path
- Uneven areas beneath the flooring
- Cracking that continues or becomes more noticeable over time
