Laminate florring quote

Depends, If you're running a business in fitting laminate then this is probably reasonable; However, I believe most DIYers are capable of fitting (particularly a 4x3m rect) in a reasonably short time. Personally, I'd do the work myself and save the £240 quid - that'd buy an awful lot of bacon butties and tins of beer for the friendly neighbour.

Sorry, not really answering your question, rather, reinforcing my DIY instincts.

A) Melamine laminated flooring isn't that suitable for conservatorie (risk of rappid changes in temperature). Wood-Engineered would b better.

I think £20 psm is excessive - it is not as if they are getting th stuff in the first place, just putting it down. I laid laminate in m conservatory (5m x 3m) for the first time I'd done it & it was dea easy. Tell him to wait & think about the £240 he'll be saving. borrowed the trade card off the builders of our conservatory & got th trade discount at Floors-2-Go - see if you can do the same

I agree. We're in Leeds and Spouse would do it for £120 but I'm off to Oxfordshire tomorrow and he wants to play with his aeroplanes while the cat's away ... Tell the chap to do it himself and learn a (very simple) new skill.

Only in the London area I think. Even our price for installin unfinished solid or wood-engineered flooring, where we apply the finis on site, doesn't come that high ;-

But, out of idle curiosity, would you turn up for a job for less than the £240 the OP's neighbour was quoted?

(Just banter, tis all)

Banter aside, Mike, yes, we would (depending on the distance). Business is not just about getting a specific minimum price. Anothe job well done for an exceptable prive is another satisfied customer, i another opportunity for highly rated and always welcome word-of-mout for any business ;-) (beats the price of an advertisement everytime
