Flooring prices vary with the material, the room, the subfloor and the amount of prep. The ranges below are general ballparks for installed floors in the Triangle area, not a quote. Your final number depends on a real measurement, which is why we do estimates in person.
Typical installed ranges per square foot
| Floor type | Typical range | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Laminate | $3 - $7 | Budget-minded living areas |
| Luxury vinyl plank | $4 - $10 | Kitchens, basements, families |
| Carpet | $3 - $9 | Bedrooms and cozy spaces |
| Engineered hardwood | $8 - $14 | Wood look with more stability |
| Solid hardwood | $9 - $16 | Long-term value, refinishable |
| Tile | $10 - $22 | Baths, kitchens, entries |
These are rough ranges and can be higher or lower for premium products, patterns like herringbone, or tricky layouts.
What moves a quote
- Removing old flooring and hauling it away
- Leveling a sloped or uneven subfloor
- Stairs, which take more cuts and more labor than open rooms
- Moving furniture and appliances
- Baseboards and transitions
