Hi Mike,

How about a bit of hardwood fixed down? You don't really want to form a ridge under your tiles or laminate! Screw some timber to the gap between the tiles and the laminate.

Yes...had one at the previous house....sort of "U" shaped channel that fixes/screws to the floor....then a "T" shaped piece that fits inside the "U" ... :dunno: can't remember where I got it though....one of the sheds... :scratch: B&Q maybe..


T
U

Bit like that..but closer...
