What affects the price
The final price for your flooring project depends on a few moving parts. First, the material itself—hardwood or luxury vinyl—will shift the total significantly. You also have to consider the square footage of the space and the current condition of your subfloor. Tack on factors like stairs, furniture moving, and the complexity of the layout, and you have your total. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
