Vinyl Flooring Calculator

Work out how much vinyl flooring to buy — luxury vinyl plank (LVP/LVT), sheet vinyl, or peel-and-stick tile — with boxes, rolls, square footage, and U.S. pricing, plus a comparison and a downloadable PDF shopping list.

Estimates use 2024-2025 U.S. average prices and typical coverage. Buy from one production lot, keep a spare box, and let planks acclimate 48 hours. For planning purposes only.
