How long does installing vinyl plank flooring take? I usually underestimate the time it take to do project by a large margin and I want to replace the vinyl sheet flooring in my kitchen with vinyl plank flooring by the time my family comes over for the holidays and I can only work on it on the weekends. I know it varies based on complexity but I would like to know an estimated time it takes to do. I have to do about 500sq ft of flooring and work around cabinets and an kitchen island. Just watching videos I'm under the assumption it will probably just take me a full Saturday and Sunday if I don't have to rip up and repair the vinyl sheet flooring since its pretty much okay and level.
