ADD TO FRIENDS ASK THE EXPERT

I learned home repair and maintenance hands on. Over the past 30 years I've built sheds, decks, fences and gates and planted numerous trees and shrubs. Inside I've done all the common jobs like repairing and installing toilets, plumbing and light fixtures plus I've transformed three basements from bare concrete floors and walls into warm , bright family rooms. I write on home maintenance and repair for DoItYourself.com and answer maintenance and repair questions online at MyHomeImprovement.com.

How to Install Pergo Flooring on 11/01/07

I’m afraid I can’t give you and exact number since prices for installation vary depending on what part of the country you are in, how busy the installers are and even the time of year. My suggestion would be to talk to a couple of flooring suppliers and get them to give you an installed price. You could then compare that with what you would have to pay for the laminate only and decide if it was worthwhile having the pros do it for you.
