Tile To Tile Transition

Stone or tile can stand up to moisture and mud tracked in from outside but hardwood is still the most popular flooring material for the rest of the house.

Tile to tile transition.

Vacuum the residues and smooth the cut edges with a sand block. When installing this type of transition treat each hexagonal tile as an individual inlay. The direction that the wood planks and tiles are laid makes this transition option even more attractive. Next you should cut the transition with a miter box and a saw as to get an accurate cut.

To connect the progress between the carpet and the tile we style a t molded wooden strip that connects the edge of the floor covering and the edge of the tile see outline underneath. This strip can either meet the tile floor directly or can have a lip over style. We make the strip from 1 by oak that we tear to 2 inches wide. You can have some of the hexagonal tile overflow into the wood to create a really cool visual effect.

Both the tile and wood are run lengthwise through the rooms only broken up by the end cap. For a floor you will want tile transition pieces that will go from room to room or serve as a transition between a tile floor and a different type of flooring such as wood. Cutting transition from tile to tile after you have measured the needed dimension you have to mark the cut line on the transition using a pencil. This entryway has two logical transition points at the openings to the hallways.

Another fun modern tile to wood transition is using tiles featuring hexagonal shapes. The end cap blends in without being distracting. We rabbet the edges around 3 8 inch deep on each side leaving 1 4 inch wide wings on the top. The colors in the stone also pick up the tones in the wood which makes the two materials look good right next.
