Where can i find the cheapest laminate flooring?


Im wanting to lay laminate flooring throughout my house and as i want so much am looking for cheap/good deals but at the same time not tacky flooring. Can anyone tell me any good sites?

The 99p shop in our nearest town has a large stock of discontinued laminate flooring for, you guessed it 99p per pack! Check out the nearest one to you.

Not to brag or be pushy, but you might want to check out my company's website: http://www.simplefloors.com/default.aspx
I know for a fact that we've got the best prices for laminates, especially for the quality. I answer the live chat for simplefloors.com so if you need any additional information on this stop by and chat with me, flooring is what I specialize in and I am happy to help out, no strings attached.

carpetcents.com 99cents & up

Your best bet is to find somewhere that has a discontinued colour of one of the leading brands. If you go to the large DIY stores like WIckes or B & Q, you will get low grade, mass produced garbage at budget prices that will not last and will not go together very well at all. It will also look very fake and little like wood.
If you can find Quickstep, Grundorf, Balterio or Tarkett laminates being cleared out by anyone for around 拢3-拢7 sq metre then it is a much much better buy than buying a cheap and nasty 拢5 sq metre loss-leader from a big DIY chain. If you ring around all of your local flooring shops and ask them how much they can do you a pallet for you might get a pleasant surprise. Shops get very good discounts when they buy full pallets and if all they have to do is drop it off at your place then they might be tempted to work ona very low margin - especially in January.
The problem with large quantities of laminate online is that delievry tends to be a lot because of the weight involved and it is very easily damaged in transit.

Danger, Red Alert, Warning.
I have fitted a lot of laminate flooring and cheap laminate is only OK in small dry areas. The price of flooring reflects the grade of flooring. For example there are laminates for living rooms which are no good in the kitchen or bathroom. Laminate for wet areas is treated and therefore is more expensive. The really cheap laminate will buckle and will open at the joints if used on any open large area. It will be false economy and you will finish up with gaps and moving boards. I have seen this so many times when people have called me in to fix their attempts at laying cheap laminate. The laying of laminate flooring is very hard and every single joint must be perfect. It is very easy to damage the tounges and if you do this and fit them you will have inconsistent bonding. If water is spilled on those areas the water will seep under the boards causing damp and swelling problems. The gap around the edges is also critical. There are expansion strips which must be fitted correctly or the floor will buckle under the strain of the boards expanding. Believe me there is great dismay when you come down one day and find a buckled board sticking up in the middle of the floor. The only remedy for this is to remove the whole floor and start again. Also once the joints have been under that pressure they will never fit properly again. It is not a good idea to try and do the job on the cheap. Last but not least. The floor must be level and be fitted with a foam underlay to prevent cold floor and severe damp problems. Even small discrepencies in the level will result in bending of the laminate and over time will cause the laminate to split. Good Luck.
