Understanding Subfloor Repair Costs
The severity of subfloor issues determines repair scope and costs.
Different subfloor materials affect material costs and repair time.
Complex repairs require more labor, influencing overall expenses.
| Factor | Average Cost Range |
|---|---|
| Minor repairs (patching, small sections) | $200 - $600 |
| Moderate repairs (partial replacement) | $600 - $2,000 |
| Major repairs (full replacement) | $2,000 - $5,000 |
| Additional labor for leveling | $300 - $1,000 |
| Material costs (plywood, subfloor panels) | $50 - $150 per sheet |
| Removal and disposal of old subfloor | $100 - $300 |
| Moisture mitigation measures | $200 - $800 |
The cost of subfloor repairs varies based on the extent of damage and the specific requirements of each project. Minor repairs, such as patching small areas, tend to be more affordable and straightforward, while extensive replacements involving multiple layers or significant structural work can increase expenses substantially. Proper assessment and planning are essential to determine the precise scope and cost, ensuring that repairs address underlying issues effectively.
Visible signs of rot or structural damage increase repair costs.
Water intrusion requires moisture mitigation, adding to expenses.
Leveling costs are affected by the degree of unevenness.
