Shoot the handyman, for starters.

Just found out tiles are not ceramic. Do not know what they are.
Handyman is 76.

Probably some of that unglazed Mexican stuff that looks like drain tile,
then, and he was trying to soak the surface with something that would
repel water. I'd ask at the store where the tile was purchased, as to
what the sealing routine is supposed to be. If they are clueless, I'd
start with non-clumping kitty litter to absorb the excess, and sweep it
in hard to see if it helps. Maybe do a test tile in a corner first.
