Ideas For Tile-to-Wood Transition
Comments (9)I don't think I have any pics of it, but Mom & Dad had the same thing in their old house when Dad installed the tile in the kitchen. He took a very simple hardwood trim piece that had a bevel to it & used it for the transition with the higher end on the tile side & the lower end of the bevel on the hardwood side. He then stained it to match. You should be able to get these at your local HD/Lowes or hardwood store. Good luck!...See MoreOld vs new wood floor transition
Comments (15)Well you are reaffirming what I thought in the first place. Glad to hear there's potential for it not to be as messy as I recall from the last time I did this.

The stairs are the worst so I think I'll deal them first - no furniture moving required and they can pre finish before installing with just some final touch up.

I think you will be ok, but it is fixable if it ever does become an issue....See Morewood tile to wood floor transition?
Comments (4)Not sure I'm following with the "age of the hardwoods" issue, but I've never seen the traditional wood tile look anything remotely close to actual hardwood (grout lines, repeating patterns) - but one alternative: they make some interesting parquet type wood tiles. https://www.tilebar.com/barberry-decor-nocciola-24x24-matte-porcelain-tile.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw1PSDBhDbARIsAPeTqrfwSflz_oEHC6XQTPXeJvsJm_UWSWm355e1emzHFzt5DxvLVZ6ZJNsaAumiEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds Depending on the style of your home, if you found something like this in a similar stain/color, it could work....See MoreAnna
