I finally got seamless transitions between tile and carpet right

The edges always looked messy or raised before. I cut the carpet pad back further and used a metal transition strip, and now it's SMOOTH. Clients love it.

Cutting the tile back a little helped me. Paired with a flat metal strip, it's seamless now.

Wondering if it's worth the effort to cut tile and add metal strips. Sometimes those tiny gaps just don't matter in the grand scheme (you know, unless you're staring at it all day). I've seen people leave the edges as is and it looks fine after grout. Seems like overkill for a problem that might not even be that serious.

Honestly, the only people who don't notice a bad transition are the ones who wear socks with sandals.
