Yes, water can leak above a concrete floor, often due to Plumbing issues, roof leaks, or condensation. If the source of the leak is not addressed, it can lead to water pooling on the surface, creating potential damage and mold growth. Additionally, cracks in the concrete can allow water to seep through from below, exacerbating the problem. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential to prevent such leaks.

In the mean time, you will have completely rotted the wood framing that supports the concrete slab.
