LVP flooring cost ottawa
LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) flooring installation in Ottawa typically costs $5 - $12 per square foot installed, depending on the quality of the product and complexity of your project.
Basic LVP installation runs $5 - $7 per square foot for standard click-lock planks with basic underlayment. Mid-range LVP with enhanced wear layers and realistic wood textures costs $7 - $9 per square foot installed. Premium rigid core LVP (SPC or WPC) with superior stability and waterproof properties ranges from $9 - $12 per square foot.
Additional costs in Ottawa projects include subfloor preparation ($2 - $6 per square foot if needed), transition strips ($15 - $40 each), and removal of existing flooring ($1 - $3 per square foot). Most Ottawa homes built before 1980 require some subfloor leveling, which adds to the total investment but ensures a professional result.
LVP offers excellent value for Ottawa homeowners because it handles our climate changes well, requires minimal maintenance, and provides 100% waterproof protection - perfect for basements, kitchens, and bathrooms. The rigid core options perform exceptionally well over concrete slabs common in Ottawa condos and newer homes.
Quality matters significantly with LVP - cheaper products under $5 installed often use thinner wear layers that show scratches quickly. Investing in the $7 - $10 range typically provides 15-20 year performance with proper installation over a well-prepared subfloor.
