Heat from stove knocking out tiles

    Hello,
    About 2 years ago we put a brick effect cladding on the wall behind a stove, and it was stuck to the wall using an adhesive.
    However, the heat of the stove has caused some of these to loosen and fall out.

    Any suggestions?

    Will any adhesive withstand extreme heat?
    If I put in a large block of marble behind the stove, might that also break or discolour?

    I'd post a picture, but can't see how

    Put them back up with a heat resistant tile adhesive. It's the expansion and contraction that has made them loose

    Thanks Listermint.

    Do you think that the heat resistant adhesive definitely work?
    I'm just wondering because the heat from the stove is very strong, and the wall is only 8 cm from the stove.

    If the existing stuff was not heat resistant then it would not be able to handle the constant expansion and contraction of the temperature range . This would have been the obvious result.

    Great, thanks.
    I'll give it a try
