For flooring contractors, materials (hardwood planks, vinyl, tile, carpet, underlayment) are typically taxable. Installation labor, old-floor removal, and disposal may be tax-exempt. Some jurisdictions tax flooring materials at different rates for different material types. EstimatePro's per-item taxable checkbox lets you handle mixed treatment per line. If you also install tile, check out our <a href="/tile-contractor/">free tile contractor estimates</a> for ceramic, porcelain, and stone projects. Enter your local rate and the app calculates Subtotal → Tax → Total.
Flooring estimates span $2-$5/sqft for laminate, $5-$10/sqft for hardwood, $5-$15/sqft for tile, with removal/disposal at $1-$3/sqft.
Set your tax rate once and use the taxable checkbox on each line item — this keeps your estimates accurate without recalculating manually for every job.
