Floor Remodel Cost Estimator

Our estimator provides a reliable ballpark figure based on current market rates. Actual costs may vary by 10-15% depending on your specific requirements, location, and contractor rates. For the most accurate estimate, we recommend contacting local professionals through our service.

The main cost factors are: flooring material type (hardwood being most expensive), square footage, subfloor condition, labor costs in your area, and any additional services like furniture moving or old flooring removal. Complex layouts with many corners or obstacles also increase labor time.

DIY can save 30-50% on labor costs, but consider your skill level. Some flooring types like laminate or vinyl plank are more DIY-friendly than hardwood or tile. Mistakes can be costly, and professionals often get material discounts that may offset their labor costs.

Most residential projects take 1-3 days depending on size and complexity. Hardwood may require additional time for acclimation before installation. Large homes or complex patterns can take up to a week. Preparation work (subfloor repair, leveling) adds to the timeline.

Preparation costs cover subfloor inspection, leveling compound application, moisture barriers, removal/disposal of old flooring, and any necessary repairs to the subfloor. These steps are crucial for proper installation and longevity of your new floors.
