Pool Table Refelting With Interior Design In Mind

By Lisa Williamson


Billiards is a wonderful pastime, and a wonderful inclusion in any home that has the available size for it. Of course, they do tend to take up very large areas, so they are not suitable to every home. Those who have the space are blessed. However, after enjoying the game for several years, the felt may begin to show its way there and tear. Below are smart options with pool table refelting for residents of Denver, CO.

Traditionally, this lovely piece of furniture, because it can be intricately decorated or simply modern, is covered with turf green felt. However, more and more people are choosing other colors to help blend it in with their existing decor. It's a smart way to ensure that the space works together.

In some cases, the need to replace the felt follows an accident with the cue stick. It can be painful for the owner, as it is an added expense, but it can happen, and frequently does happen. Of course, replacement is necessary soon after, otherwise no one can continue to play on the surface until it is repaired.

No matter what the reason is for having to replace the felt, consumers should know that they have choice with regards to felt colors. For instance, a very popular color is camel because, being a neutral color, it works with almost any color scheme, and even more so with other neutrals. Red is another popular color among those that prefer bold colors.

Another bold and popular choice is blue, but consumers can also stick with their traditional turf green color. Whatever the case, a felt replacement is the job of a professional. It simply must be perfect so as it does not interfere with the playing surface, and the direction to which the balls are aimed.

The job entails the removal of the existing felt, from both the surface and the bumpers. From there, the new felt will have to be cut to size, which is usually done off-site. The specialist will use his top-notch skills to deliver the best results, after dismantling and replacing the pieces in question.

As such, this skilled labor and top-quality materials come with a price. Some may charge more than others, so it is recommended to do some homework to save a few dollars. However, one should never compromise quality for the savings. What people should be looking for is value, and that means a proper installation with a good quality felt.

More often than not, the company representative will provide an estimate after having seen the pool table in question. Some skilled laborers may charge by the hour, while others will give a fixed rate. Most consumers prefer to go with those that provide the fixed rate because, if the individual is having trouble with the installation, the consumer is not charged more than necessary.
