Replacing a boat floor is a big project—but it doesn’t have to sink your budget. At BoatFloorings, we know many boaters want a safe, reliable, and attractive deck without paying yacht-level prices.

Here’s an honest look at the cost of different marine flooring options, plus why EVA foam boat flooring is one of the best-value choices on the market today.

💰 Average Costs for a New Boat Floor

Depending on the material and labor, here’s what most boaters can expect:

Flooring Type Installed Cost (Per Sq Ft) Notes
Carpet $5–$15 Cheapest, traps moisture, mildew risk
Vinyl $10–$25 Easy to clean, can get hot in sun
Aluminum $15–$30 Tough, noisy, no cushion
Teak $30–$50+ Beautiful, high-maintenance, heavy
EVA Foam $8–$18 Anti-slip, cushioned, DIY-friendly

For a typical small-to-medium boat (80–150 sq ft), you could spend:

  • Carpet: $400–$2000 (including install)

  • Vinyl: $800–$3000

  • Aluminum: $1200–$4500

  • Teak: $2500–$7500+

  • EVA Foam: $80–$180 per roll (DIY)


⭐ Why EVA Foam Boat Flooring Is the Best Value

Many boat owners want to know:

“Why is EVA foam so much cheaper?”

It’s about smart design, not cutting corners. BoatFloorings’ EVA foam boat flooring is engineered for:

DIY Installation: Skip the labor costs—just cut and stick.
Anti-Slip Safety: Textured surface keeps you stable.
UV Resistance: Holds up in the blazing sun.
Saltwater Durability: Made for harsh marine conditions.
Comfortable Cushioning: Great for long days on deck.
Easy Cleaning: Hose it off after fishing or cruising.


💡 Transparent Pricing

At BoatFloorings, our EVA foam rolls average $80–$180 depending on size, thickness, and pattern.

  • Budget-friendly options: Single-color rolls, around $80–$120

  • Premium designs: Camo, diamond, striped patterns, around $140–$180

  • Custom cuts available for easy installation

Compare that to paying thousands for teak or vinyl installs. For many boaters, EVA foam is a no-brainer.
