How to calculate the money when buying laminate flooring
During the renovation process, laminate flooring has become the first choice for many families because of its wear-resistant, easy-to-clean, and cost-effective advantages. However, when purchasing laminate flooring, the way the price is calculated can be confusing to many consumers. This article will combine the hot topics and hot content on the Internet in the past 10 days to provide you with a detailed analysis of the pricing method of laminate flooring to help you make more informed purchasing decisions.
1. Price structure of laminate flooring

The price of laminate flooring is usually determined by the following factors:
| factors | Description | price range |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Base material (high-density fiberboard), decorative layer, wear-resistant layer, etc. | 50-300 yuan per square meter |
| brand | Famous brands have higher premiums | The price difference is 50-200 yuan per square meter |
| Thickness | Common 8mm, 10mm, 12mm | For every additional 1mm, the price increases by 10-30 yuan/㎡ |
| Wear resistance grade | AC1-AC5 (AC3 or above is recommended for home use) | For each level of improvement, the price increases by 20-50 yuan/㎡ |
| Additional services | Installation fees, baseboards, moisture-proof mats, etc. | Extra 20-100 yuan per square meter |
2. How to calculate the total cost?
The total cost of purchasing laminate flooring is not just the unit price of the floor multiplied by the square footage. You also need to consider the following items:
| Project | Calculation formula | Example (take 80㎡ as an example) |
|---|---|---|
| flooring cost | Unit price × area | 100 yuan/㎡ × 80㎡ = 8,000 yuan |
| Installation fee | Installation unit price × area | 30 yuan/㎡ × 80㎡ = 2,400 yuan |
| Auxiliary material fee | Baseboards, moisture-proof mats, etc. | About 20 yuan/㎡ × 80㎡ = 1,600 yuan |
| total cost | Flooring + installation + auxiliary materials | 8000 + 2400 + 1600 = 12,000 yuan |
3. Answers to recent hot questions
According to the search hot spots in the past 10 days, consumers are most concerned about the following issues:
1. Is there a big price difference between online shopping and physical stores?
Online shopping is usually 10%-20% cheaper than physical stores, but you need to pay attention to shipping costs and after-sales issues. Some brands provide online and offline services at the same price.
2. How to avoid being trapped by the “low price trap”?
Cheap flooring may cut corners (such as insufficient base material density). It is recommended to choose AC3 or above wear resistance grade and check the quality inspection report.
3. Are imported floors necessarily better?
Imported floors are expensive (200-500 yuan/㎡), but domestic high-quality brands (such as Nature and Shengxiang) are more cost-effective.
4. Tips for saving money
1. Select a promotional season purchase (such as “618” and “Double 11”).
2. Measure the area in advance to avoid wastage of overbuying.
3. Negotiate with merchants for free installation or discounts on auxiliary materials.
Through the above analysis, I believe you have a clearer understanding of the pricing method of laminate flooring. It is recommended to choose the most cost-effective solution based on your own budget and needs!
