Points To Consider On Pool Table Refelting Denver

By David Turner


Pool has been a very popular pass time across the word for a number of years and many bar rooms and homes have tables. Over a length of time the playing surface will be subjected to wear and tear and often it will be damaged or ripped. When the cloth is too badly damaged you may need pool table refelting Denver and there some things to consider before you hire someone.

Applying new cloths to pool tables is a specialized job and should only be done by an experienced person. There are businesses in Denver CO, who will come and fit new cloths to your tables, and make them playable again. The cost involved will vary depending on the size of the pool table and what grade of covering you have ordered.

After contacting a firm to do the work they will come out to your premises and work out what needs to be done. After calculating the cost of the materials and labor they will offer you a price for the job and you should get a few quotes to compare prices. Always make sure you use a reputable firm that is properly qualified to do this work and who are insured.

Initially the worn covering will be taken off and this will take some time. Pockets and rails will have to be removed and set to one side. The felt can then be stripped and the base slates cleaned in readiness for the application of the new felt. These slates need to be checked for level and properly cleaned with special fluids and any imperfections that are found should be filled with specialized resin or wax filler.

There are a few options available when you are selecting a new cloth. A standard everyday cloth will last much longer than a Wooster covering which is favored by the professional players. When the replacement cloth has been selected it should be examined to check for any tears before being fitted to the slate using the correct adhesive and steel staples.

After the felt is trimmed to the required size it will be tightly stretched across the slate to get a nice finish. After the adhesive has set properly, the underside of the felt can be securely pinned to the frame and pocket areas prepared. Side cushions will then be covered with the new felt before being fitted back to the table and lined up.

When the job has been completed the final thing to do is check the whole set up to make certain everything is level and all the markings are added to the new cloth. Using a spirit level and shims to make the table level will ensure it is playable and balls will not roll off course. There are some mechanisms available on the market on which pool tables can sit and these can be adjusted without the use of the shims.

Any sporting equipment that is subject to daily use should be properly inspected and kept in good working order. A cloth should be thoroughly brushed at least once every day and any bits of pool chalk and small foreign bodies should be removed. If the felt should tear or be accidentally damaged in future it should be replaced to prevent damage to the expensive slate bed.
