I've recently been approached by a guy who fits fires/stoves and fireplaces. He's looking for me to fix tiles with him around his fire places. Does anyone else out there do work like this?
Can anyone advise me whether I should be looking for a heat resistant adhesive and grout or would a normal flexible underfloor heating type be ok?

Most of the BAL flexy products state tempratures up to around 100deg C. If stuff is going to get hotter than that around your tiling area I feel it would be a dangerous place to be. i don't think there is a problem really, but I may be wrong. Give the techie guys at BAL, ardex and Mapei a call and see what they say......Then come back and let us know.:thumbsup:
