Frequently Asked Questions – Flooring Cost Calculator

What’s included in the total cost estimate?

The total cost includes both material costs (flooring itself) and professional installation costs per square foot. Additional costs like underlayment, removal of old flooring, or special preparations are not included.

How accurate are these estimates?

Our estimates are based on average national costs. Actual prices may vary by 10-30% depending on your location, specific materials chosen, labor rates in your area, and complexity of your installation.

Should I add extra material for waste?

Yes, professionals typically recommend adding 10-15% extra material to account for cutting waste, pattern matching, and future repairs. Our calculator doesn’t include this buffer in the estimate.

What affects installation costs the most?

Installation costs vary based on flooring type (tile is most labor-intensive), subfloor condition, room shape/complexity, and local labor rates. Specialty patterns or designs will also increase costs.

How do I reduce my flooring costs?

Consider less expensive materials (laminate vs hardwood), DIY installation for some types, shopping sales/closeouts, or choosing simpler patterns that require less labor and material waste.
