It varies greatly from product to product and from market
to market. The best way to get an answer is to put an ad on Craigslist
telling what you want installed, the more detail you can give the better the quote will be... ie..
"3/4 inch, unfinished oak hardwood over wood subfloor,
new construction, 400 sq feet, need it done this week, paying cash.".
The lesson here is that the more detail you put in the ad, the better the quote.. You will have to understand that not every installer has Golden Hands, some are thieves & butchers, so you may not always want the low bidder..

Can you install vct tile over vct tile?
Yes you can install vct over existing vct. The existing vct must be well adhered to the subfloor, no loose tiles or cracked and chipped tiles. If tiles are missing or must be removed you will need to patch in those spots with a suitable portland cement leveler or new pieces of vct. You will need to sand off the wax layer that may be present on the existing vct because if it is left on it can wear loose over time causing adhesion failure of the new vct and glue. Sweep all dust and contaminants from the floor.

How can you remove vct tile?
The following works on VCT tile glued to a cement floor - primarily in a space less than 900 square feet (any more than that I would recommend at least looking into an air-powered scraping tool): The flat end of a heavy crow bar can slide between the tile and floor serving to remove the VCT. It's a lot of work (repeated chiseling motion is necessary - but this seems very effective). Another tip is to use a heat gun on VCT tile which is glued down really well. The heat breaks the glue-bond down effectively. Overall, this is hard work, hard on your hands, wrists, and potentially your back too. In particular my hands and wrists have gotten quite sore doing this. I thus recommend using weight-lifting (well padded) gloves perhaps underneath work gloves (or just pick up some very durable work gloves). Anything to alleviate the shock to your joints and hands will help you accomplish a lot more with a lot less pain. Lastly, absolutely wear eye protection of some sort - you'll need it as the process will kick up things into your face.
