Several lines appear not to align, and we would like to price them correctly: Tarkett Sheet Vinyl material is listed at 3,000 SY (27,000 SF), while Installation of Sheet Vinyl is listed at 9,000 SF. Which quantity is correct? SF should be SY. The SY is correct Is the 2,000 SY Tarkett Adapt (Woodlot Holly Oak) material line the material for the 2,000 SY Installation of Carpet Tile line?
