What type of flooring project do you need?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP): $3–$8/sq ft installed. Hardwood: $6–$15/sq ft installed. Tile: $5–$15/sq ft installed. Carpet: $3–$8/sq ft installed. Laminate: $3–$7/sq ft installed. A 1,000 sq ft project runs $3,000–$15,000 depending on material and subfloor condition.

Porcelain tile is the most durable residential flooring — it’s waterproof, scratch-proof, and lasts 50+ years. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the most durable for the price — waterproof, scratch-resistant, and lasts 15–25 years. Hardwood can be refinished multiple times, extending its life to 50–100 years.

Hardwood flooring adds the most resale value — homes with hardwood sell faster and for 2.5% more on average. If hardwood exceeds your budget, luxury vinyl plank is the best value play — it mimics hardwood at 40–60% of the cost. Avoid cheap laminate if selling soon.

A typical room (200–300 sq ft) takes 1 day for LVP or laminate. Hardwood installation takes 2–4 days for a similar area (plus 1–2 days for acclimation). Tile takes 2–4 days including grout cure time. A full-home project (1,000+ sq ft) typically takes 3–7 days.
