Remove the vinyl and hardwood, the plank flooring can stay, add 1/2" plywood over it, then install your backerboard.

Ceramic on fireplace hearth

I am considering the installation of wall grade ceramic tile on a smooth concrete fireplace hearth. What types of heat resistant adhesives do the professionals use for fireplace applications? I have both horizontal and vertical surfaces to cover. I was told to consider the heavy duty adhesives in the tube for added strength but is that really the best approach? many thanks Jake
