| Hardwood install (per sq ft) | $7 |
| Tile install (per sq ft) | $9 |
| Carpet install (per sq ft) | $2.50 |

Example prices only — you set yours. Import your list from a spreadsheet in seconds.
Example: LVP throughout the main floor of a rental
A landlord wants waterproof floors in the living room, kitchen and hallway between tenants — fast.
| LVP install (per sq ft) × 850 | $2,975 |
| Old carpet removal (per sq ft) × 500 | $500 |
| Baseboard reinstall (per ft) × 220 | $550 |
| Total | $4,025 |
| Deposit to start (30%) | $1,207.50 |
The landlord approves online, you order the planks with the deposit, and the job spans two days on the schedule. Your crew sees the lockbox code in the notes.
An example to show how it works — prices and steps are yours to set.
What customers ask a flooring installer
Is LVP really waterproof?
Most LVP resists water well; explain the product's limits in the notes.
Do I need to move the furniture?
Say what you move and what you don't.
Can you install over my old floor?
Sometimes. Write down what you decided on the estimate.
Tips for your flooring installer business
- Landlords re-hire you for every turnover — treat them like gold.
- Price removal, prep and trim separately from the install.
- Add 5–10% waste to the material, and show it.

Questions flooring installers ask
Can customers pay a deposit?
Yes. Set a deposit on the estimate; the customer pays it by card and approves the job at the same time.
Can I tax materials only?
Yes. Tax the whole job, only the lines marked as materials, or a fixed amount per invoice.
