$185 for Resurfacing of Hardwood, Laminate, Engineered, or Pergo Floors from Fabulous Floors (Up to $375 Value)
Much like prehistoric mosquitoes, hardwood floors require thick coatings of resin to retain their youthful glow. Preserve your planks with today’s Groupon: for 5, you get a hardwood-floor resurfacing treatment from Fabulous Floors (up to a 5 value).
The renovation experts from Fabulous Floors refinish up to 250 square feet of hardwood, laminate, engineered, and Pergo flooring. After filling pronounced cracks and divots with color-matching putty, technicians gently buff nicks, scratches, and crow’s-feet from the floor’s aging face. Vacuums then suck up lingering debris, and each board shines brighter than ever after an application of polyurethane, which comes in a choice of gloss, semigloss, or satin.
Once sealed, typically within less than a day and without any lingering chemical odors, floors become newly resilient, untroubled by heavy foot traffic or soccer-cleat gridlock. Groupon customers can varnish more timber at a reduced rate (.19/sq. ft.), and technicians happily move furniture for an additional fee.
