In almost every case vinyl will be lower than laminate.

Tile higher than hardwood floor.

Contractor suggested shoe moulding on leading edge but i don t know about how that would loo. And be nailed into the hardwood. The engineered hardwood with the underlayment which is being installed on our concrete subfloor will be 3 8 or 9 525 mm higher than the existing tile floor.

I would try and create a transition that would overlay the tile flooring. Ceramic tile often creates a floor level that s higher than neighboring floors such as those made of vinyl thin hardwood or carpet. A marble or granite strip that abuts to the tile floor this strip then adjoins to the lower floor. A single transition strip that acts as a ramp from the lower hardwood floor to the higher tile floor.

The easiest design is to have a mill shop create this transition. In most cases tile is significantly cheaper than a traditional hardwood floor. Much like the tile to laminate strip this one reduces from a higher tile floor covering to a lower vinyl floor. This hardwood transition strip is shaped to make smooth transition from a lower vinyl floor upward to a thicker ceramic or stone tile floor.

Use a strip like this to break up spaces without drawing attention to the transition. The brushed aluminum finish blends in nicely to accent both flooring choices. The tapered edges should be no thiner than 1 8 thick to avoid splintering. The different levels can be visually jarring and cause people.
