Max height difference of flooring between 2 rooms
Comments (6)Would you recommend a rubber underlayment? It appears a 1/2" rubber underlayment from the rubber company is the same product as the branded Serenity Mat, etc for a lower cost. To get an idea, I purchased a 6'x4' 3/4" rubber mat which was also a recommended solution. I can see this accomplishing airborne noise but it was quite rigid and created notable vibration. Perhaps the 1/2" will better absorb impact? In the case of a rubber underlayment, is there benefit to adhering the underlayment to the floor with Green Glue or is this a waste of money?...See MoreTwo different floors next to each other (open floor plan kitchen)
Comments (16)Hey, everyone! Thanks for your advice! We'll be changing the cabinets to white shakers. They definitely look like it would be a good match if we go with a lighter cabinet. I'm not sure about the floor material, but it was stained before. I've been running some looks, and I can't quite find a tile that I think looks too great here. We're considering trying to extend the floor, but we'll need to take a piece over to get it matched at a flooring store....See MorePlease help with layout of kitchen and other rooms in 1909 four square

Comments (3)I see no reason to use transitions just the fact they are a different room and their use is different is all you need to choose a different wall color. That tile color will always drive the wall color in each space so maybe just a different shade insted of a completely new color....See MoreAubrey Curtis
