Carpet to tile transition thingie

quote; I also don't like the sliver cut of tile.

No "good" tile installer would EVER install a floor and have a 1" strip on ANY edge.

On my latest projects you can see a growing trend in tile to hardwood. So far none of the last three homes are even using carpet. Maybe an area rug or two but no carpet. So no carpet to tile transition is needed.

What is nice about the tile to wood is that the wood or the tile can be angled to meet each other. You can only do that a little with carpet and not a lot like wood.

Umm... 2007 to 2014 is 7 years. Maybe the OP is still weighing options?

By now he could be recarpeting again cause the edges at all his transitions got vacuumed away.

I like just butting the tile snug to the rolled edge of the carpet.

I prefer keeping the transition as simple as possible. A clean edge usually looks better than adding extra trim.
