| ESTIMATING INSTALLATION COSTS | |
| There are several variables to consider when trying to estimate the cost of floor coverings. For instance, will you need someone to remove the existing floor covering, or will you be doing it yourself? | VINYL FLOORING ~$8.00 - $12.00 for installation ~$1.00 per square foot for subfloor (Pricing per square yard except where otherwise noted)
|
~$6.00 - $8.00 to install Includes the subfloor and thinset. |
Will you need new
padding? Are you installing flooring over concrete or wood? This will determine the type of padding you'll need to use. |
| The estimates on this page will be helpful in giving you a ballpark figure on installation costs. | VINYL TILE ~$1.50 - $3.00 for installation (All pricing per square foot) |
| CARPET ~$3.50 - $6.00 for installation ~$1.00 - $2.00 for removal of old carpet ~$3.50 - $4.50 for pad (if necessary) (All pricing per square yard) Pricing of carpet depends on |
You may or may not need new pad. We sell only the two best types - Ultra Plus Daltonian is a 10# solid rubber pad and lays over concrete and/or under berbers, at $4.50 per square yard. |
| We also carry the 8# Rebond pad - a half inch thick and breathable, it's used primarily on plywood, under plushes. Both are lifetime pads, and properly cared for, will last for many years. | WOOD ~$2.00 - $2.50 for installation (All pricing per square foot) Pricing depends on solid wood or laminated flooring, prefinished or not, and prep of floor |
