Excludes certain services rendered in connection with installation of carpeting and other flooring from sales and use tax.

This bill would exempt installation services for carpeting and other flooring (such as linoleum, tile, hardwood, and marble) from New Jersey's sales and use tax when the installation constitutes a capital improvement to real property. Currently, contractors, sub-contractors, and retail dealers must collect and remit tax on these installation services regardless of whether they're considered a capital improvement. The bill would amend tax law to exclude these specific installation services from taxation under the current definition of "services rendered in installing property which, when installed, will constitute an addition or capital improvement to real property." This change would alleviate tax collection burdens for businesses and reduce costs for homeowners and businesses installing qualifying flooring.
