Fireplace tile replacement
Hello. We're having a tile contractor replace our fireplace tiles around our gas / wood fireplace. We never use it. Husband removed the tile and the builder used drywall behind the tile. He removed and replaced with the same 1/2 drywall. I read online that cement board should be used. But the tile guy assured me that drywall is fine. My husband agrees. I'm obsessing over this. Can Anyone offer insight? Should I insist on cement board with tile guy? He already installed the hearth and coming back tomorrow to do the tile. Thanks. submitted by /u/Other-Ad2287 [link] [comments]
