What is the Cost of Installing a Laminate Floor?

If you want to install a floating timber floor, you will need to know the entire cost of the project. Knowing the cost for every square foot of the laminate floor is a single component of the whole cost of the project. To avoid getting any surprises and to ensure that the laminate you have selected fits within the entire project budget, ask the vendor to do a calculation on the floor covering project total cost. Below is a list of expenses that may pop up.

• Demolition and disposal of the previous floor covering. This will depend on the existing floor covering and may be very expensive so ensure that you have included the cost of disposing the previous floor.
• Removal and replacement of furniture.
• Installation of the laminate. Have the cost calculated per square foot. .
• Materials needed for the installation completion. Remember that the new laminate floor may need some additional materials for proper installation.
• Delivery of the product.
• Preparation of the subfloor. This will depend on the sub floor’s condition which may require additional work done

Ensure that you have consulted the manufacturer’s care guide and warranty for directions on the frequency of cleaning the floor as well as the cost of cleaning it. Laminate floors require that you are armed with information but they are well worth all the effort.
