Now the bottom... when installing the laminate flooring they did not undercut the fireplace.... I’m kind of at a lost in how to deal with it....
You can still undercut it by attaching a gauge to the floor and running a thin disk on a 4" grinder to make the first cut and then with a couple more cuts under that, then the material should chip right out of there.

You'll still have some scribing to do but it doesn't have to be nearly as precise since the flooring will be under the rock.

If you have someone else there with a shop vac by the wheel as you're cutting it will catch most of the dust. I've done it this way more than a few times.
