Transition question
Post Body

Looking for some advice. First flooring project in our recently purchased townhome.

For context: Living room (wood flooring) transitions into kitchen (tile flooring). I know I’ll get a bunch of hate for this but we don’t really like the narrow plank wood floor look so we decided to run a wider LVP plank on top of it. I’m trying to keep the wood floor underneath since it is well maintained and just in case I decide to go back to it or something.

Anyways, the problem I’m having is that as I get to the tile in the kitchen, I’ve noticed that the flooring is level with the LVP. Which means that as I try to install LVP on top of the tile, it will sit slightly higher (roughly 6mm). This I think would present a problem down the line with the LVP planks not locking correctly.

I was going to go with a transition so that the slight rise in flooring wouldn’t be noticeable but is there any way to just run it seamlessly?? Would that require, taking all the tile out? If so, is it best to run leveling compound or is there an alternative that isn’t as much of a hassle??

Any advice is greatly appreciated!
