The photo shows a fireplace into which I've poured concrete (over the original uneven firebrick) to level the hearth with the main wood floor. A woodburning insert will be installed. I want to lay tiles over both the front of the concrete section and the first foot of the wood floor, as shown by the first two tiles. If I just lay 1/4" Durarock over both the wood and concrete (on a layer of thinset over both) and then screw it only onto the wood, will it hold up fine as my base for tiling?
That concrete apron in front is about 2" deep, as there used to be a brick-lined floor recess there, tiled on the bottom.
