Flooring Calculator

Flooring costs are made up of two very different pieces — the material itself and the labor to install it — and both vary a lot depending on whether you choose laminate, hardwood, tile or carpet. This calculator combines your room's dimensions with your chosen material and labor rate, adds a waste allowance for cuts and offcuts, and gives you a total installed cost rather than just a raw materials estimate. It is a practical way to compare how much switching from carpet to hardwood would actually cost for your specific room size, or to sanity-check a contractor's quote against an independent estimate before you commit to the job.
