Reading the table for a 22x22 space
Notice how the installed range widens as tiers climb: material choice, not labor, is what separates a $1,558 job from a $4,919 one on the same 484 sq ft floor plan. Labor for mid-range laminate lands near $968 nationally, plus or minus your state's rate. All rows include the 10% cut-waste pros actually order.
