After having a leak in my bathroom, it seemed to compromise my subfloor, so I had it redone/replaced. A local Handyman I hired for the job ended up not cutting the bottom of the door frames on either side and sliding the plank underneath like I have seen in our other rooms. It ended up looking like a set of tiny Tetris blocks and I know that can't be good. I do know that flooring may tend to shift over time and if this is left unsealed, any water that enters these gaps can start to eat at the subflooring.
Not being one to attempt flooring, that is why I hired someone to do it in the first place. Without having to tear up the floor in the one area, I was wondering if there is some kind of way to "cap" the bottom of the door frame and seal it with caulking maybe? I know when I see decorative frames for some windows or doors, they have some kind of square block at either of the top edges to make it look cleaner. Is there something I can look for at the Home store that I can use to seal and cap them instead?
