If you’re ready for modern flooring, prices for vinyl flooring should be fairly low.

Installing the flooring yourself will save you money. There are many vinyl flooring choices available. With the ease of installation, you might want to try completing this project yourself.

One of the cheapest choices are peel and stick tiles. This is going to be extremely cheap and very easy to install, but it is also going to wear down pretty quickly if it is getting frequent usage. Try putting it in a spare bedroom. But not the kitchen. It wouldn’t last extremely long. You can find this fairly readily for about $.50/ sq. ft.

Vinyl tiles are the next step up that gives you plenty of texture and styles to pick from. Even though there are some cheaper tiles in this category, you can consider commercial vinyl flooring. It holds up great to moisture and high traffic. It might be a little more pricey, but you will get your usage out of it. These tiles will usually sell for around $.80/ sq. ft.

The final vinyl flooring option would be vinyl sheets which is a great deal more expensive. If you have pets and kids you will like this flooring. It’s extremely resistant to wear, tear and moisture. It will stand the test of time and avoids the problem of a tile being lifted in the middle of the floor by a curios child or pet that is trying to dig his way to China. Prices for this style of floor can run as high as $20/ sq. yd.

Now if you put in a contractor fee into vinyl flooring pricing, these costs will go up significantly. Paying $5 or $6 per sq. ft. is common depending on the contractors experience level.

The installation cost actually costs more than the supplies. Because of this you may want to do the installation yourself. It is cheap enough that even if you mess it up, replacing it three times over is still less expensive than hiring someone to set it down for you.
