Reading the table for a 8x16 space

Notice how the installed range widens as tiers climb: material choice, not labor, is what separates a $511 job from a $1,829 one on the same 128 sq ft floor plan. Labor for mid-range LVP lands near $352 nationally, plus or minus your state's rate. All rows include the 10% cut-waste pros actually order.

Example mid-range build: Premium Wide-Plank LVP (20 mil wear layer · 8mm SPC · 9"+ wide planks) — material $843, labor $352, total $1,195 for the full 8x16 room.
