Are concrete blocks cheaper then a concrete slab?

That's sort of a strange question. A concrete slab is a horizontal surface -- it's meant to be a surface you stand on or build things on.

You wouldn't use concrete blocks as a substitute for a concrete slab.

Generally, you can't. Laminate is not like hardwood. It is only a picture of wood with a plastic surface.

This will simply leave you with a mess!
