A Fireplace hearth is a fire-resistant area placed around a fire.

The Decorative Hearth sits over the constructional hearth and is usually made from stone, slate or ceramic tiles. It must cover the constuctional hearth if floorboards are exposed.

Slabbing
Slabbing is the method of filling the underneath of the hearth with reinforced concrete. This provides a stable base for the tiles.

The hearth sizes are determined by how many whole diamond patterns of roughly 10 cm (4 inches) wide can be contained inside the border strip which can vary from 5 cm (2 inches) to 10 cm (4 inches) wide.
