Missing. Any suggestions how to fix without replacing whole
Piece?? We think something may have been dropped on this ...

Any good tiler can remove the piece and replace it. The same thing happened to me and luckily I kept extra tile! You can't even tell it was ever cracked! Home remodelers - always keep paint, tile, grout etc. you never know when you're going to need this stuff for repairs.

  Thank you so much KAthy. We do have the extra tile and my husband actually did the tile work. We were just wanting to figure out if there is an easier way since it's just a hairline and nick so we didn't have to buy all new mortar , grout , etc. you ar kind to respond !!

If it's not loose leave it. Or use a paint pen to hide it.

  That's my plan but was just wondering if there's something that we could try to put on it first to keep it from getting loose and prevent further damage. Thank you Sherrie!!

  I also cracked a tile and have just left it alone. So far so good we also installed our tile. If it ever breaks we will replace it then.
