Kitchen Flooring Cost Calculator
Estimate a kitchen floor with removal, prep and moisture-practical material options in one comparison.
Compare the same project across flooring types
These are broad installed planning ranges for the area you entered. Your live estimate above is more specific because it includes scope, waste, prep, removal and region.

COST SNAPSHOT
Start with a range. Then price the actual job.
Kitchen flooring prices vary sharply by material—from budget vinyl and laminate to tile, hardwood and stone.
FloorCalc planning data refreshed August 2026. See methodology and sources.
The number that matters is the total scope.
Product price alone can miss labor, tear-out, subfloor work, waste, stairs, transitions and finishing. FloorCalc exposes those items instead of burying them in one multiplier.
WHAT FLOORCALC INCLUDES

COMMON QUESTIONS
Kitchen Flooring Cost Calculator FAQ
How much should kitchen flooring cost?
The answer depends mostly on material, area, old-floor removal and subfloor condition. Use the estimator, then compare alternative materials for the same square footage.
What flooring works well in kitchens?
Water-resistant vinyl/LVP and tile are common choices. Waterproof product claims vary, and hardwood/laminate require more attention to spills and moisture.
Does the estimate include removing cabinets?
No. FloorCalc estimates flooring work, not cabinet demolition or kitchen remodeling unless you add a custom allowance outside the calculator.
Can I compare tile and LVP for the same kitchen?
Yes. Run either material and use the automatic comparison table to see planning ranges for the same area.
