How Much Does Flooring Cost in Adelaide? 2026 Price Guide

A transparent breakdown of what flooring actually costs in Adelaide — supply, installation, and the hidden extras most quotes don't mention upfront.

What you'll actually pay for flooring in Adelaide

One of the most common questions we hear at the warehouse is "how much will my flooring cost?" The honest answer is: it depends. But unlike most flooring retailers, we believe you deserve a clear picture of costs before you visit a showroom or request a quote.

Here's what flooring actually costs in Adelaide in 2026, broken down by product type with both supply-only and fully installed pricing.

Hybrid Flooring: $55 – $95/m² installed

Hybrid flooring is Adelaide's fastest-growing category for good reason. Supply costs range from $32 to $58/m² depending on brand, thickness, and wear layer. Installation typically adds $22 to $35/m² including moisture barrier and standard transitions.

What most quotes don't include:

  • Subfloor preparation ($5 – $15/m² if your slab is uneven)
  • Furniture removal and replacement ($150 – $400)
  • Old flooring removal and disposal ($5 – $12/m²)
  • Scotia/skirting boards ($8 – $18 per lineal metre installed)
  • Door trimming ($15 – $25 per door)

For a typical 80m² Adelaide home (living, kitchen, hallway), expect a total project cost of $5,500 to $9,500 fully installed with all extras.

Vinyl Plank: $40 – $75/m² installed

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is the go-to for renovators and investors. Supply costs range from $22 to $45/m² with installation at $18 to $30/m².

Laminate: $35 – $65/m² installed

Still excellent value, especially for bedrooms and living areas. Supply from $18 to $38/m², installation $18 to $28/m².

Carpet: $45 – $80/m² installed

Supply from $10.95 to $39.95/m² plus underlay ($8 – $15/m²) and installation ($8 – $15/m²). Carpet is priced per broadloom metre but we convert to square metres for easy comparison.

Sheet Vinyl: $35 – $65/m² installed

Supply from $15 to $35/m² with installation at $18 to $30/m². The most cost-effective option for wet areas.
