    Default Slate hearth

    Hi Girls and guys,

    Thought I would share with you a slate hearth I have recently completed.

    There was an old stone hearth there but this was really nast and chipped and broken all over the place.

    I had to start by shuttering around the old one and filling with a concrete mix. Let this go off and dry then remove the shuttering.

    Prime and tile with Topps finest slate tile, then sealed and coated with colour enhancer.

    Customer was over the moon with the finished result.
