Why Utah prices differ from national averages
Material prices are fairly consistent nationwide — a box of tile costs about the same in every big-box store. What moves is labor. Installer day rates in Utah track local cost of living and contractor demand, which is why Floormath applies a 0.89 multiplier to installation, demolition, baseboard, and stair labor for Utah projects, while material stays at list price.
A mid-range example: Large-Format Porcelain installed at $10.00/sf nationally becomes about $8.90/sf in Utah.
