What moves the number in a 10x20 room
The spread comes almost entirely from product tier: Budget AC3 Laminate and Wide-Plank European Laminate are several dollars per square foot apart, which compounds to a four-figure gap in a 200 sq ft room. Labor is steadier — about $400 here at national rates, drifting 15–25% with your state. Every figure already carries the industry-standard 10% material waste allowance.
