B&Q Fireaplce Installation Query

I've recently purchased a complete surround set with a gas fire.



It's a similar sort of deisgn as seen on the B&Q website -

question is what would you recommend for securing the micro marble surround onto the wall (plaster)?



The hearth is all level and the surround is ready to sit on top and secured.



I popped to B&Q yesterday and asked what they recommend. He suggested using dabs of Fireproof cement on the back of the surround and then 'stick' to the wall. However, although it will do the job, I'm not so sure. It will make it difficult to remove if I wanted to in the future.



Will no-nails suffice?



I need to get the hearth and marble surround fixed before a corgi gas man can come and connect up the gas fire.



Look forward to your replies.



Many thanks

Use the proper fireplace adhesive, not fire cement. Its only 3 quid for a big tub, I got my tub from buy and queue.
