Reading the table for a 15x20 space

Notice how the installed range widens as tiers climb: material choice, not labor, is what separates a $1,797 job from a $5,854 one on the same 300 sq ft floor plan. Labor for mid-range engineered hardwood lands near $1,050 nationally, plus or minus your state's rate. All rows include the 10% cut-waste pros actually order.

Example mid-range build: Exotic Engineered (Acacia, Koa) (1/2"+ thick · 2–4mm veneer · Exotic species) — material $2,802, labor $1,050, total $3,852 for the full 15x20 room.
