Hard flooring cost / installation

[Colalola]

Is it better to buy materials and do it ourselves or pay a company to install then pay it off monthly and spread the cost with a finance type of payment? Is it difficult or fairly easy to do? Help!
Just wanting laminate vinyl flooring type thing

I had LVT flooring installed last week in a 3 x 3.5 m² room. I ordered the flooring, underlay, floor trim, and beading online, then hired a flooring specialist to carry out the installation. He charged £20 per square metre and completed the job in about an hour and a half. The room was already empty, carpet stripped and fully prepared.

@OneGiddyDuckhow much did you spend in the end do you know? I need whole of downstairs doing 😭

@Colalola flooring £ 330 (29.50/sqm). Underlay from Screwfix £33, trim and beading from b and q £ 60, labour only £195. That is for a 3x3.5 m room.
