Hardwood Flooring Cost

Hardwood flooring is a choice with staying power. Both beautiful and durable, hardwood has something carpet does not: it holds its value, even appreciates over time. And while the life of carpeting can be extended if well maintained, hardwoods can be resanded to remove damage or change the stain or finish and for a fraction of the cost of replacing flooring.

Solid hardwood and engineered hardwood have similar price ranges, beginning as low as $2.99/sq ft and reaching up to $15 or more/sq ft. Learn more about the differences between solid and engineered hardwood here.

Prices range from species to species based on the availability, hardness, plank width and length and special features, including finishes like lime-wash or pickling, hand or wirescraping, distressing and reclaimed or recycled woods. Domestic hardwood is also more affordable than exotic woods from around the world.
