Can anyone tell me whether or not i can tile over a skimmed fireplace which has had a cassette log burner inset into the wall? Originally the plasterer skimmed it with gypsum based plaster which cracked a lot! Found out afterwards the gypsum can't withstand the high temps. The log burner is like a furnace!!
It has since been replaced with similar to get rid of the cracks, but can we tile over that - we're planning to use a natural stone like travertine or tumbled marble. Or do we have to strip it all back?
Many thanks
