Re: Flooring edge help

Hello @ashsew 

 

Generally, the flooring trim is not placed in front of the cabinetry. They are often just placed on the wall as the gap is always between the wall and the artificial flooring. 

 

However, if the flooring was put in place without moving the cabinetry, then you would need to put flooring trim around the cabinets. Looking at your end panels, you can see that the flooring goes under it and possibly under the kick board as well.

 

But if you wish to cover the edges with flooring trim your current choice is actually quite suitable. I can see from the photos that you've done mitre cuts before, so you'll just need to cut ends for the turns. There are quite a few choices for flooring trim profiles, it all comes down to what you prefer. I suggest visiting your local store and having a look.

 

There is also the option of using Bostik 300ml White Seal It Kitchen And Bathroom. You can seal the edge of the panels and kickboards to give it a nice, finished look.

 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

 

Eric
