How to reinstall shower floor stone?

Hi,

We had our bathroom remodeled in 2019. Last week we noticed a stone from one of the 12” x 12” mesh backed sheets of floor tile was completely loose. How do I reinstall it?

If you want to avoid turning it into a bigger project than it needs to be just glue it back down with a dot of PL Polyurethane or RTV silicone. Not so much that it squeezes out the edges.

Yep, that's it. If any squeezes out you'll need a lot of paint thinner to clean it up.

Will this fix make this stone water tight?
