I'm going to tile over 3 sided brick fireplace all the way to the ceiling. To do this I have to build a frame and mount backer board from about four feet up. I plan on mounting some expanded metal over the brick and then cover with a layer of thinset. About how much thickness can I expect this metal+thinset to add to the brick. Approximately. I'll need to know this so I can build the frame and have the backer board end up flush to thinsetted over brick.
pic of what I've got now.
