Bullnose or metal for shower wall and step edge?
Comments (6)I think that a metal edge can look very nice, particularly in more modern rooms, but our personal preference is bullnose. We were told by our tile supplier that the tile we chose doesn't come in bullnose. I took a sample tile to other suppliers to find a bullnose that would work with it and found my exact tile elsewhere...with the matching bullnose! It turns out that the first tile supplier "doesn't like" bullnose and they'll tell people that it's not available when its just not available through THEM. That may be your situation at all but, just in case, I thought I'd mention it so that you can confirm bullnose availablilty on the manufacturers' websites if that's what you prefer to use. If you do opt for a metal edge, I'd use satin nickel to match your other finishes and make it less obtrusive....See MoreIs bullnose edge in a bathroom a contemporary look?
Comments (5)Lukkiirish your right I have that problem in my existing kitchen, never really gave it a thought cause the cabinets are cheep builder grade and I have already replaced one door due to rot. I see some of the problem now. I think the squared thick edge is a nice contemporary look and what I am seeking for my bathroom counter but she is right some of these places only offer the bullnose. So you gotta keep looking. It's a big Job thats what I was doing today was looking for counters....See Morefor anyone looking for carrara marble bullnose pencil moulding

Comments (6)I agree with all of you who settled on the metal strips and with Michael who says it looks great. After hours of research and going out to search for the right finishing trim in ceramic, porcelain, marble, stone, you-name-it, for my white beveled subway tiles, I came across a gentleman in a store who advised me to take a look at the metal edge transition strips for tiles at a neighborhood tile store. I finally settled on a curved (not straight or squared edge) bullnose satin nickel stainless steel trim to hide the unevenness of the thickness of the tile cuts, avoid any chipping, and also to match my bathroom fixtures. My white beveled subway tiles look beautiful! The store had a sample shower niche with the same bullnose metal edge and it looked very nice and modern and had a clean finish. Best to you on your projects!...See More- 5 years agolast modified: 5 years ago
