Right now I have a slate pad in front of my gas logs that's too small for the new stove (HS Heritage) and will have to be replaced. This part of the stove/chimney install is my responsibility. I'm considering a prefab hearth pad but they seem needlessly expensive for what they are, though it would be just a matter of plunking one down on the floor (I'm assuming).
I haven't priced materials to build one myself yet but will be doing so in the next day or so. I'm guessing I build a frame, lay down some sort of backer board then tile...right? I'd love to just dry fit some flagstone.
If you've built one and have progress pics please show me what you did.
Simple and cheap are the goals for this part of the project!
