    Loose tile over underfloor heating

    We have prowarm electric mat laid on concrete base. Ceramic tiles 600x 150 mm laid on top. One tile makes a ‘cracking’ noise when walked on; assume this is a sign it is loose. The grout is still intact. Is there any solution that doesn’t involve ripping my hall floor up.
