This is a typical range, not a quote. The sections below explain what moves the price for this job. The dot marks the middle price, and a + means some businesses charge more.
What the job involves
Vinyl plank is a plastic floor with a printed wood image under a clear wear layer. Installing it means preparing the subfloor, laying the planks in staggered rows and trimming the edges where the floor meets walls and doorways.
Laminate installation is the nearest neighbor and is priced separately. A laminate plank has a core of compressed wood fiber, while a vinyl plank's core is plastic or a stone and plastic blend, so the two react differently to water and suit different rooms.
What moves the price
- Rigid or flexible core
- Rigid-core planks are thicker and stiffer, and they can bridge small bumps in the subfloor that a thin, flexible plank would show through. They usually cost more to buy, and how much prep work they save depends on the floor underneath.
- Attached pad or underlayment
- Some planks come with a pad on the back, and others need underlayment rolled out first. Underlayment is an added material and an added step, and some makers advise against putting a second pad under planks that already have one.
- Stairs and nosing
- Each step needs a nosing piece for its front edge, usually bought to match the plank, and each tread and riser is cut and fitted on its own. Both add materials and labor beyond what the open floor costs.
- Long runs and sunny rooms
- Vinyl plank expands and shrinks with temperature, so some makers call for extra room at the edges or a transition strip in a long open run, and some limit direct sun. Following those rules can add materials and labor.
- Baseboards and edges
- A floating floor leaves a small gap at the walls that trim covers. Pulling baseboards and setting them back, or adding shoe molding, costs time or materials and is sometimes a separate line.
Getting a quote
Questions to ask each flooring company before you compare prices:
- Is the plank rigid-core or flexible, and does it have a pad attached?
- Will the floor float or be glued down, and which method does the maker require for the rooms I am covering?
- Are baseboards, shoe molding and the strips at doorways in the price, and are they new or reused?
- Are the stairs priced by the step, and are the nosing pieces included?
- Does the maker's warranty depend on a particular underlayment, installation method or moisture test, and will you follow it?
