    just google: laminate floor nosing trip hazard

    inspectors, contractors, bob fucking vila, everybody thinks this method is unsafe. it's your family, like i said, if you're happy i'm happy but just maybe your kid did you a favor ripping that cheap shit up

    • look at the direction the flooring is going here. this is the context in which expansion is relevant. your boards go perpendicular to the fake nosing, you don'tterry_cloth
    • need a gap for expansionterry_cloth
    • *facepalm. You don't understand how mdf/hdf expands/contracts versus real wood.ETM
    • do you really think the planks are going to heave and separate if they are perpendicular to what they are pressing up against. you tell me mr. mdfterry_cloth
    • i think the worst that will happen is you will eventually have an 1/8th of an inch gap between the edge of the flooring and the nosingterry_cloth
