Tile next to laminate


My tile floor that I am putting in will be 1/4 inch higher than my laminate floor in the kitchen, what kind of transition material/piece is out there to make this happen??? Also, could I tile directly over the laminate???

thanks

Ken

It will fail.

A Vinyl reducer to match the lam will overlap the tile and slope down to the lam.
