cost of laminate flooring including underlay
Low-cost laminate starts around 90 cents-$2 for thinner flooring (6-7mm). With some additional costs for underlayment and matching baseboards/trim, it can run $450-$950 for basic laminate materials for a 20x20-square-foot living room. Laminate prices are based in large part on how realistic-looking the flooring is; inexpensive laminate may look artificial. Thicker (8-12mm) and more realistic laminate could run $3-$7 a square foot, with total materials costs of $1,300-$3,000 for a living room.
