Hello!

We are getting an open living/dining area on the ground floor, where the tile floor is supposed to transition into parquet.
I have often seen such wide transition strips made of aluminum or similar materials, which I don’t like.
But I was told that this is necessary because the floors work/move due to the underfloor heating.
Does the joint really have to be so big that it can’t be done otherwise? I rather feel that the craftsmen would need to work more precisely (but don’t want to) because of the visible edges.

If you enter "Parkett Fliesen Übergang" in Google image search, the 5th result shows the transition with a slim stop strip, just like I imagine it.

How have you solved this?

Best regards,
Daniel

This is what it looks like with us (just with different wood):

Tile - stainless steel strip - wood

However, the screed height must be correct for this.

oh nice bamboo parquet. Screed height can possibly be leveled with filler. But it is important that the variant as above only works without an expansion joint. If there is one (usually always at room boundaries), a Schlüter strip would be advisable.

The picture is missing cork or silicone - like that, it doesn’t look good.

This is not our floor either, I once used the photo as a sample. You can also use other rails/borders. This shows that you don't necessarily have to glue/screw on any transition rails, but that there are also elegant solutions.

The transition strips that go on top are, of course, absolutely hideous. With floating floors, it can't be done any other way!

One reason why only fully glued parquet comes into my house.
