If not already done: remove as much as spilled water as possible (as soon as possible also icon_wink.gif).
Let everything dry, excess the damage. Lift all the loose blocks out, scrape all adhesive off form underfloor and blocks. Leave all blocks to dry further and hope they resume their original width and length. Apply new adhesive to underfloor and install blocks back.

Hope this helps
