I'm covering up the crappy paver fireplace and extending the hearth. Got the cement poured for the hearth, it's ready to be tiled. I've also got the durock screwed to the brick face. What now? I have an antique mantel that I'll be installing and will be putting bricks around the firebox opening, but the rest of the wall is to be finished and painted to match the walls of the room.
I have all of these seams, do I mesh tape the seams and skim coat the durock?
Lemme see if I can get some pictures of this thing to help...
