transitioning from tile to carpeted stairs


We are installing ceramic tile on our landing and will have carpet on the stairs below. How do we transition from the tile to the carpet on the top step?

Hi Erin,

You can use a metal stair nosing made especially for ceramic tile. Like this one; http://www.schluter.com/2_8_rondec_step.aspx

Another choice is to use an oak nosing.
