By Edward Young


Pool is a very popular game in clubs and bar rooms and and a large number of people also enjoy playing it in their home. After time, a table's playing surface will become worn in places and it may develop holes or get ripped due to accidents and it will need renewing. When you are trying to locate denver pool table refelting it is a good idea to do some research before you contact a firm.

There are a few places where you will find a firm to supply a fitter to do the refelting work. Phone numbers for companies are listed in the local directory and other businesses will advertise in the neighborhood. It may also be worth speaking to the firm that you purchased your table from and they may supply a fitter if they have one.

The web can also produce good results and there are many well established companies that advertise online. You can browse the web site to find out what services they offer and there will be a contact link to enable you to speak with them directly. Most web sites will have a testimonials page where you can read comments from previous clients which is always helpful.

Removing an old cloth and fitting a new one is a very skilled job and should only be carried out by a professional technician. The prices you pay will depend on the size of your table and quality of felt that you have selected. When you have contacted a firm, and accepted their price, they will send a technician out to your premises to do the job.

The first job the fitters will do is remove the old covering properly. The pockets and six side cushions will then be removed and inspected. The slate base will need to be cleaned and examined for any chips or gaps. Any imperfections that are found can be repaired by using a special putty filler or a wax based resin.

There are a couple of choices to make when you are selecting a new cloth and these are club grade or the felt that is used by professionals. The new felt is trimmed to the correct size and stretched across the slate to get an even finish. When the adhesives are dry, the pockets and side rails are covered with new felt, refitted and leveled.

When the cloth has been fitted, everything is checked to ensure it is level and the markings can be applied. Leveling tools and small wedges can be used to ensure that pool tables run true. You will then be able to check the work that has been done before paying the bill.

All types of sports equipment that is used on a regular basis should be inspected often and properly maintained. The playing surface should be brushed daily to remove the particles of chalk and other debris. If you spot any tears or holes in the cloth you should cover the pool table and get the repairs done before using it again.
