We have manufactured laminate wood flooring that is installed and the adhesive we used for the joints is fine however…we are having a terrible time trying to find an adhesive to use for the transition boards to fill the tiny space between our tile and laminate floors and the space between our back door and our laminate flooring. I’m terrified about liquid spilling and getting between the laminate and the plastic barrier that is on top of the concrete. We used “liquid nails” in our first attempt to glue down the transition boards but my toddler decided to go and pull up on the board and was successful in destroying the bond/installation of the transition board…needless to say we didnt even bother trying to put the other boards in place. Now its time to potty train our toddler and I WANT THE TRANSITION BOARDS INSTALLED BEFORE HE HAS AN “accident” that leaks under the laminate wood floors. Does anyone have an adhesive they can reccomend for the transition boards?

I know about undercutting baseboards, so I can tuck the ends of the boards underneath, still leave expansion room, but getting the ends out of site. My question is can I undercut in door jams? I don’t really know door construction but if I use the undercutting tool, will I weaken the door jam/frame structure or am I safe as long as I only go a little depth?

I will be ordering “wood looking” tile to install. Would you recommend a tile baseboard to go with it or that being a bit pricy, will a nice wood trim still accept it nicely?
