Water oozing from slab

I have a small amount of moisture oozing up from my concrete slab.  Workman removed flooring and exposed the slab.  A water leak has not been detected.  It was just enough water to discolor the flooring but not enough to suggest a leaky pipe.  No one seems to be able to figure out where the mositure originates.  Has anyone expereinced a similiar situation?  Or, does anyone have a suggestion as to how to solve this issue?  Any ideas most appreciated.

It may be time to hire a leak detection company. If there is a leak (whether radiant heat or domestic water), the escaping water you don't see may be pouring out from under the slab.
