What does a click PVC floor cost per m²?

The prices below provide a first indication:

  • Click PVC floor: from €50.00 per m²
  • Professional installation: from €20.00 per m²
  • Base price floor and installation: from €70.00 per m²

This base price excludes any preparation of the subfloor, skirting boards, transition profiles, door adjustments, and removal of an existing floor.

After inspecting or measuring the space, we can provide a complete quote that clearly includes all necessary materials and work.

Example calculation: click PVC for 60 m²

For a house or apartment with 60 m² of floor space, a simple example calculation looks like this:

  • 60 m² click PVC from €50.00: €3,000,-
  • 60 m² installation from €20.00: €1,200,-

Indicative base price: from €4,200,-

When calculating the required amount of flooring, cutting waste must be taken into account. The amount of cutting waste depends on the shape of the rooms, the size of the planks, and the chosen laying pattern.

Skirting boards, profiles, and any preparatory work are charged separately. Therefore, the example price is not a final quote but a realistic first indication.

What is a click PVC floor?

Click PVC is a floor where the planks are connected to each other with a click system. The floor is installed floating and not fully glued to the subfloor.

Many modern click PVC floors have a sturdy SPC core. Some versions also have an integrated underlay. This allows installation in suitable spaces to proceed faster than with glued dryback PVC.

That does not mean that click PVC can be laid on every existing floor without inspection. The subfloor must be stable, sufficiently flat, clean, and dry. Also, the manufacturer’s instructions, direct sunlight, and the required space around the floor must be taken into account.

Can click PVC be installed over existing tiles?

Many homes on the Costa Blanca already have a tile floor. If these tiles are stable and sufficiently flat, click PVC can be installed over the existing floor in certain situations.

Before we advise this, we check among other things:

  • whether the tiles are firmly fixed;
  • whether there are height differences or damages;
  • whether the joints are not too deep or wide;
  • whether the floor meets the flatness requirements of the manufacturer;
  • whether there is enough clearance at doors and sliding doors;
  • whether there are no moisture problems.

A click floor cannot indefinitely compensate for small superficial irregularities. For larger height differences, loose tiles, or an unstable subfloor, the floor must first be repaired or leveled.

When should the subfloor be leveled?

With dryback PVC, the subfloor is almost always leveled because the floor is glued directly. With click PVC, full leveling is not always necessary, but the existing floor must meet the technical requirements of the chosen product.

The allowable deviation varies by manufacturer and flooring system. That’s why we assess the subfloor before determining if direct installation is possible. A poor subfloor doesn’t disappear just because a nice box of PVC is placed on top.

When is click PVC a good choice?

Click PVC can be a suitable solution for:

  • apartments and holiday homes;
  • renovations where the existing tile floor is retained;
  • spaces where a floating floor is technically possible;
  • projects where a short installation time is important;
  • homes where extra impact sound reduction is desired, provided the chosen system is suitable for this;
  • situations where the floor must be relatively easy to remove later.

For large spaces, lots of direct sunlight, heavy temperature stress, or a floor that must be completely flat and stable, dryback PVC can be a better choice. We therefore advise based on the home and not solely on the price difference.

What additional costs can be added?

In addition to the floor and installation labor, the following work or materials may be required:

  • removal and disposal of the existing floor;
  • local repairs or full leveling of the subfloor;
  • extra underlayment when it is not integrated;
  • baseboards and finishing along walls;
  • transition and expansion profiles;
  • shortening or adjusting doors;
  • extra cutting waste for complicated spaces or patterns.

That is why we always ask for the location, the number of square meters, the existing floor, and the desired finishing when requesting a price. Photos or a floor plan help us make a better estimate immediately.

Click PVC or dryback PVC?

Click PVC generally has lower preparation costs when the existing floor is flat enough. Dryback PVC requires more preparation but often provides the tightest and most stable final result.

Which floor is ultimately more cost-effective depends not only on the price of the material. The subfloor, installation, finishing, and lifespan must all be taken into account.
