Is labor cheaper for tile or hardwood?
This depends on many factors including what area of the county you are in and what type of subfloor you have (e.g. concrete vs. plywood). It can also depend on type of tile (e.g. natural stone is more expensive than ceramic/porcelain) and what type of hardwood/type of installation (e.g. solid vs. engineered, glue down vs. float vs. nail down) as well as width of wood. This also depends on how level your floor is/what floor prep is needed. In the NY area/mid Atlantic, it is usually less expensive to install hardwood rather than tile, esp if you have a plywood subfloor. In the South and Southwest, though, it's usually the opposite - labor is often less for tile and the homes are built on concrete slab. It's best to get estimates from actual contractors in your area and have someone look at the current condition of your floor/subfloor to give you an accurate answer to this question.
