When my neighbor had her laminate flooring put in, she got three estimates and East Coast was the lowest bid. They also had a good reputation, as did the other two companies she contacted. Maybe part of the difference in cost has to do with the type of flooring, how they handle the baseboards, furniture moving, reducer strips, thresholds, removal of existing flooring. These are some of the things you need to ask about. East Coast will be here tomorrow to start work on installation of laminate for our three bedrooms, I'll let you know how things go. Sometimes price isn't the only thing to consider.
