    I have seen signs in my Local Home Depot that say...installations starting at $1.99 per sq foot (labor only) that is pretty cheap...but keep in mind laminate is a cheap floor and you basically get what you pay for. I no longer install laminates as I feel it does not provide long term value to my clients...REAL hardwood or tile will outlive many laminate floors.
  • This varies a bit with your local trade conditions. Around here it is around $3 per square foot labor. As KMS said, places like Home Depot or Lowes usually are a bit cheaper - but not necessarily better.

    I installed a few laminate floors in Chalmette and other parts of Da Parish - just to get people back in their homes for the lowest price. It is a pretty easy DIY project, but we were also putting it in assuming that folks would likely be replacing it if they had enough money. I guess I am agreeing with KMS that you are better off with something else, but if you are putting it in, just do it yourself.

    I emailed some folks I still know down in your area to get some suggestions for good contractors. You can also search for contractors and get free quotes from them with the search box at the top of the page.
