Professional Guide to Replacing Linoleum Flooring

Replacing linoleum flooring can range from $650 to $1,200 per opening, depending on factors like material choice and labor complexity. For construction professionals, understanding these variables is crucial for accurate project planning. CountBricks offers a streamlined process using AI technology to ensure precision and efficiency.

Key Cost Drivers in Linoleum Replacement

• Tear-out complexity: Simple perimeter-bonded linoleum is less labor-intensive than full-spread glue-down.

• Subfloor repairs: Addressing moisture damage or leveling issues can increase costs.

• Finish material: Options like luxury vinyl plank (LVP) or engineered hardwood vary in price and performance.

• Trim and transitions: New moldings and thresholds complete the professional look.
