Frequently Asked Questions
How do material grades affect pricing?
Each flooring type has a price range from economy to luxury. The calculator interpolates based on the selected grade: Economy uses the minimum price, Luxury uses the maximum, and Standard/Premium fall in between proportionally.
Can I include hardwood refinishing?
Yes. When 'Refinish Existing Hardwood' is selected, the calculator shows refinishing-specific options including screen & recoat, full sand & finish, and repair options with different pricing tiers.
How do installation patterns affect cost?
Patterns like herringbone, chevron, and diagonal require more cuts and labor. The calculator applies multipliers: diagonal (+10%), herringbone (+30%), chevron (+35%), basket weave (+25%).
What about subfloor repairs?
The calculator includes subfloor condition options from good (no extra cost) to replacement (+$8/sq ft). This covers minor repairs, self-leveling compound, and full subfloor replacement.
Can I include floor removal in the estimate?
Yes. When 'Replace Existing Floor' is selected, options appear for the existing floor type with appropriate removal costs (carpet $1/sq ft, tile $4/sq ft, etc.) plus optional disposal fees.
