Wednesday’s Question:ICANATEX Logo

I want to figure out how much to charge for stripping and refinishing a VCT floor.

Wednesday’s Answer:

There are several variables that have an impact on pricing.

Once you are experienced, pricing by the square foot is the fastest method.

However, your floor care survey form must include the extent of difficulty, which is often dependent upon the degree of heavy build up and the requirements for detailed edging.

The amount of furniture to move is a major consideration as well as the room sizes.

With all of this in mind, your pricing for a small and difficult job could start at 50 cents a square foot and range down to below 20 cents for a large supermarket.
