Replacing old carpet with Vinyl
Hi everyone.
I'd like to get some thoughts on a project I'm looking to start next week to replace the flooring w/ LVP.
I've got a quote for roughly 6k of 1152sqft-- 3.4k for the LVP and 2.3k for labor and 290 for prep and molding. My
goal is to run this throughout the whole floor. I thought I'd ask here before I go through with it incase there's some additional
due diligence I'm not doing. The specific floor we're looking to install is called Panzu(cancun color). It's about 4.7mm thick with a 12mil wear layer. Interestingly, I can't find where to buy this.
I'm in Westchester, NY btw!
Would highly appreciate some thoughts.

@Jeff Regist, I put waterproof LVP throughout the whole house and do self-leveling where needed.
Carpet is cheaper as a purchase price, but I found that I need to replace it quite often which made it more expensive on the long run.
