Tile to wood floor transition at bathrm door
Comments (3)OK, so basically there is no magic bullet that I'm just unaware of. So fabrication: The piece that abutts the tile should be level with the tile and the thickness of the tile and thinset. The part that will cover the wood floor will receive the rabbett. If the tile and thinset is roughly 1/2" and the wood is slightly lower (maybe an 1/8th), about how overall thick should I make the piece? 3/4"? Also, would you fasten it with a bead of adhesive then nail and putty? Thanks...See Morethreshold transition between tiles and slider door?
Comments (4)I'm feeling pretty ticked off at myself for even hiring those guys. We were planning on doing it ourselves, but we were just too flipping tired after all the work we've poured into the kitchen, we decided to go with our neighbor's recommended tile guys. We laid the backerboard and taped the joints, so at least we know that was done. I am really, really upset that I didn't do my research more, because it turns out they used premixed thinset. Which I now know is not good. So in between kicking ourselves, my husband and I now have to decide do we want to bring these guys back to fix one loose tile and a few poorly grouted sections, or should we do it ourselves? Live and learn, I suppose. Too bad it costs so much. Thanks for your input; I really appreciate it. I think we'll try to do the cuts, but if that doesn't work out it's good to know there are other options. Toni...See More~*~ pics ~*~ flooring transition.. wood or tile, opinions please
Comments (22)roygbiv, this was exactly what I planned on doing. I have had the HARDEST time choosing between cream painted cabinets or the cherry... but for now, I am saying Cherry (but I so love cream too!!) and I will do the island in cream. jejvtr, thanks for all the links.. I got "stuck" on the rate my space, and spent a couple hours on it!! (of course, 2nd guessing myself again!) I did have hardwood in the kitchen in our last house, and I did really love it, however, I only lived there 7 months - barely enough time to settle in. The flooring is a Spanish mahogany, so it is a different wood species, yet I am not sure if it has enough of a contrast, or if it doesn't really matter much if I am going with a lighter (either in the gold or beige) granite and doing the island in a cream glaze....See Morehow should i transition the entry tile to hard wood
Comments (8)you don't have to go w/hex,,,i was just showing you the pics on how to blend. you could do marble, or travertine, slate, porcelain,, you already have plain white tile. you're redoing it? but 12x12 is dated, and 12x24 is meh,,,that slate tile in the herringbone is nice. we know that's not dated since you find it in 18th century Europe. Hex has been around since mid century in home design, so, I don't think that's going anywhere. And mcm is on a comeback. just pick something you like that looks good. don't worry about the buyers in a few years. with the stuff I see in homes that get bought, some hex tiles aren't going to deter anyone!...See MoreBy Any Design Ltd.
