I'm trying to do the finishings for this step down from the kitchen to the laundry. I originally thought a block of wood and then some rubber overlay but wanted to check other options.
Hello @ashr97
For finishing this step down from the kitchen to the laundry, you have a few options depending on the look and durability you want. If you’re after a simple and sturdy solution, a timber stair nosing from Bunnings could be a great fit. You can stain or paint it to match your flooring, and it provides a clean edge while protecting the step. If you prefer something with a bit more grip, aluminium stair nosing with a non-slip strip is a good choice, especially in a laundry where things might get wet.
If you're still considering a rubber overlay, you could pair it with a bullnose trim for a softer transition. Another option is a custom timber tread cut to size, which would give a seamless look between the two floors. For a modern finish, you could also install a tile trim or vinyl edge strip if you want to keep it minimal.
Let me call on our experienced members @Dave-1 and @Nailbag for their recommendations.
If you need further assistance, please let us know.
