*Pricing notes. Per-sqft pricing is for flat flooring only. Stairs are priced separately at around $175 per step for LVP (see our stairs pricing page for details). Carpet removal is fully included in the all-in price. Removing other flooring types (laminate, vinyl, tile, or hardwood) takes more labor, so we add a small per-sqft fee that we'll quote exactly during your free in-home estimate. No surprises after the fact.
Observed LVP comparison
Compare the installed scope, not the shelf price. The current audit found $9-10/sqft LVP totals in Home Depot and Lowe's comparisons after common installation add-ons. Potomac's current LVP rate is $6.50/sqft all-in.

What Affects Your Flooring Cost
Your final price depends on a few factors. We assess all of them during the free estimate so there are no surprises.
Material Type
Carpet is $3.25/sqft. Laminate and LVP are both $6.50/sqft all-in under the current working prices. Laminate suits dry rooms; LVP is generally the safer direction where surface water is expected. Hardwood is $8.50/sqft. Tile is custom-quoted.
Square Footage
More area means a higher total, but the per-sqft price stays the same. A 500 sqft LVP project is $3,250. A 1,500 sqft project is $9,750. We measure precisely during the estimate. You don't pay for material you don't need.
Subfloor Condition
If your subfloor needs leveling, moisture barrier installation, or minor repairs, that's included in the estimate. We check for these issues during the free visit so you know the total cost upfront. Not after we've ripped up your old floors.
Room Complexity
Simple rectangular rooms are straightforward. Lots of angles, closets, stairs, or transitions between rooms can add time and material. We account for all of this in the estimate. No surprise charges on install day.
Old Flooring Removal
Removing old flooring is included in our all-in price. Tile, hardwood, carpet, laminate, whatever's there. Some companies charge $1-2/sqft extra for removal. We don't. It's built into the price.
Don't Let Budget Hold You Back
We offer 0% interest financing for 24 months if you qualify. A 1,000 sqft LVP project ($6,500) is about $271/month across 24 months before any scope change. Qualification is required.
