Pool Table Refelting With Interior Decor 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.

Blue is another popular choice, because it stands out, it is bold, but it's not as hard on the eyes as is the red. Of course, one can always choose the very popular turf green, which still tops the list. No matter which one is chosen, this is a professional job because it must be done to perfection. Otherwise, it will just interfere with the game.

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.

Because this is such intricate work, and because it requires very fine tuned skills, the replacement certainly comes with a cost. As in all industries that are competitive, some charge more than others. To get the best value, it is recommended to seek out an experienced professional with the best prices.

Most companies will provide a free estimate, coming to the consumer's home and inspecting the damages. Consumers will find that some specialists charge their customers with an hourly rate, and others simply work on a fixed rate. Most feel safer with the fixed rate, because they are spared any further expenses, should there be any trouble during the installation.
