** If your tackstrip pokes through so that you feel the nails, take a regular hammer and pound along the tackstrip (after it's all installed) and fold the tacks towards the tile. (should still be hooked into the carpet) then fluff it back up with your hand and good to go.

I have a master bathroom (Tiled) in the master bedroom (Carpet). I would like to be able to lay a new floor (laminate planks) over the bathroom Tile. Because I am removing the carpet in the bedroom and laying the Laminate flooring, I am uncertain if there is a possible way to transition from the bedroom( carpet being removed) and the bathroom/closet ( laminate on top of existing tile in bathroom.

Thank you. I’m installing laminate flooring and will need to transition to our existing carpet. My question is where in the door jam is suitable for the transition - either good to carpet or a transition strip? Thank you in advance.

Need something that is more protective of the edge. This is fine until the pets and vacuum cleaner hit the edge of the carpet. Will look further for threshold coverings.
@stevehamman44653 жыл бұрын
The tile had a schluter edge piece!! When tucking to tile or any hard surface you should double strip and use a sealer on the carpet edge before tucking it !! It will keep the rug from fraying.!

@Dj_Matic2 жыл бұрын
It is called a carpet kicker or carpet stretcher and can be found at almost all box stores that sell flooring. I would always recommend to check FB marketplace if no luck; Harbor Freight Tools.

You would need something called a transition threshold. Often referred to as "Schluter-Strip" However, Schluter is just a brand name. Much like people call tounge/groove vinyl flooring "Pergo" (which of course is also just a brand name)

The reason the edge lifted is because you left a small piece of mortar in the middle.
