    Default tiling behind an aga

    hi guys,

    im replacing a few broken tiles above an aga for my mother. (the tiles were removed for a new fan to be fitted-so rest of tiles are sound.)
    Anyway, the tiles were put on before i was a tiler, so im not sure which ady was used. What adhesive would u recommend using? Only reason i ask is that due to an aga being a constant heat source, i dont want to use wrong kind. Would tubbed bal be wrong, or best going for a bag of bal super flex mix? I normally use that for floors, but feel this might be best on this occasion?

    As for grout? Just make sure its flexible?

    most flexible wall and floor adhesives would do the job ok but to me bal is the best one for the money.
