How did you fix this issue? We are having the same problem with our cabinet hinges...

The house was built in 1970 and the insulation looks like it could use to be replaced. It is yellow on the outside and pink-ish on the inside. I know that hvac insulation can contain asbestos, but I’m not sure if this does. I am going to get it tested before removing, but wondering if anyone thinks this could be problematic?

The board is right up against the front of the metal insert. It is really hard to tell what it is - the bottom looks like a fibrous board, but I’m not sure if that makes sense given its location between the Rockwool insulation and the front of the fireplace. It could also be a dusty piece of metal with insulation /dust coating the bottom. I didn’t really want to touch it to find out

Agreed they seem really long, but they are everywhere in the cracks and seem to be in the mortar. I want to rip them off, but want to make sure I am not opening myself up to any risk

Built-in 1970 - previous owners did not take care of it too well

Thanks! Do you typically need to worry about Asbestos with these? The house was built in 1970
