Hi
I am desperate for some help and guidance from a professional.
My daughter has moved into her first home and has acquired and wooden fire surround together with the marble hearth and marble back plate. (hope this is the right word)
She is having an electric fire fitted.
My problem is that when the marble back plate is flush with the actual fire surround there is a gap of about 3 inches to the actual wall.
Having had a trawl of the DIY sites there seems to be quite a few answers.
What is recommended to stablise this back plate to the actual wall so that when the frame surround is postioned to the back plate and then screwed via the surround brackets it will not show any gaps etc.
Many help or guidance will be greatly appreciated.
