Hello, I have a very large stone tile (30 by 60 cm, 4 cm thick) which has got "loose" and is moving every time i step on it. The tiles have been positioned on a concrete base. I was wondering if I actually need to lift the tile out of it's position redo the concrete or i can use some fixing paste, and if yes what kind. Thankyou!

Boy you made me google a centimeters to inches conversion tool to figure this one out. I hope my math is good here. The stone tile is approx 12" by 24" and approx 1.6" thick. If its loose and you can remove it without damaging it that would be best. Chip out the old mortar to get a flat surface and set the tile with masons mix. Whats fixing paste? You aint from around here are ya? Where you from mate?
