    what has the hearth been prepared with, and what is the finish on the walls?

    You should use a cement based floor adhesive (powder) and a flooring grout. Depending on the surface you should prime it with an acrylic bonding agent first

    Thank you for your reply the walls at the moment are brick and the bit where fire will stand is concrete.
