Installed flooring generally runs $3–$14 per square foot: LVP/laminate $3–$7, hardwood $8–$14, tile $7–$15. Subfloor prep, removal of old flooring, and stairs add cost. LVP is the popular value pick for durability and water resistance. Measure your rooms, then get quotes so materials and labor are itemized.
