Here is my problem, see pictures attached for clarity. My laminate is 1/4" higher than the tile, because of the cork underlayment. I have included two pictures. I do not know how to do the baseboards and shoe molding to make this look right. The only solution I know of or can come up with is this:
You would take out the shoe molding on the left side of the transition piece, caulk the bottom gap below base board and paint it. The rest of the base board in that area touching the tile only, would be laid directly on top of the tile, like the walls the umbrella are touching in the second picture. So there will be shoe molding throughout the whole house, except where there is tile.
Also, side note, the upstairs bathrooms where there is tile, already have shoe molding. Leave those there? I don't think this is something anyone would ever be able to notice, shoe molding on this tile, but not on the downstairs tile or even snap to it?
Please know the room picture attached is older, as the transitions pieces are already glued down.
PS: I know, the corner on the base board isn't good, stupid wall.... Caulk will fix it just fine, I think.
Thanks for your help and opinions!
