Laminate Flooring Quote   
My neighbour has had a conservatory built and has decided on laminate
flooring.  The conservatory fitters said they would do lay it for 20 per
square metre.  My neighbour is to supply everything i.e. flooring, underlay
(thick type for concrete floor) and beading for the edges, they'll supply
the sealant for sticking the beading!!!.  His conservatory is a rectangle
(4m x 3m), no alcoves, no bays, no radiator pipes, nothing!  Is this a
reasonable price or are they taking the ...  I have said tell them to "go
forth and multiply" but he thinks it's a good deal.  I have said I'll help
him do it but not for a couple of weeks, but he wants it laid this weekend
and I'm busy at my Mums.  Is this a reasonable price for the labour or
should he expect something lower?  We live in Leeds if that helps.

Cheers

John

Good joiners usually charge 10 per square metre but most carpet
fitters and carpet shops will take anything between 6 - 10 per metre.

I rent a house out and decided to do the living / dining room with
laminate floor. General George quoted 140 for 28 sq mtrs - thats a
fiver per metre!!
