Pool table dimensions are very important when deciding which billiard table to choose from the many pool table sizes. Please consider the dimensions of the room where you want it installed. In this segment, we have listed the approximate pool table room sizes to help you out when buying a table or deciding which room to have it installed considering you use a standard 58” cue stick.
Do not hesitate to give us a call to find out which is the best pool table size for your game room!
Our team of billiard table installers also advise that you take into account the existing furniture in the room or furniture you plan to purchase in the near future since this will definitely affect the gameplay and your playing experience of course.
If you decide to remodel your game room or the flooring where the pool table sits needs to be replaced. Your table will have to be moved and even if it is only for a few inches. It is still necessary to completely disassemble it in order to move it.
This type of service is what we call a move in two appointments. On the first appointment, we will properly break down the table and move it to on-site storage. On the second appointment, we will relocate the pool table back to its original location and work on your pool table installation, building it from the ground up in a piece by piece fashion.
Experienced pool table movers strongly advise you verify the pool table room sizes
Many people don’t consider this very important question when purchasing a pool table for their home, will it fit in the room?
This plus the furniture that you already have in the room or that you plan on adding to the room is of extreme importance since it affects the size of the pool table you can get so that you enjoy a good playing experience.
Our experienced pool table installers have been taking care of pool table moves, installations and repairs for quite a few years, so we can definitely help you verify if the pool table you’re interested in will fit in the room, please measure the room dimensions, you may also use the chart we have put together for your convenience.
The dimensions of your game room will determine the size of the pool table you can purchase so that you can enjoy a comfortable playing experience.
If you’re interested in a used pool table be sure to ask the seller for the pool table dimensions, specifically the playing surface area since this is the true size of the pool table and it helps to figure out the appropriate pool table room size and the right cut of pool table cloth in case we need to do your pool table refelting during setup.
How important it is to know the correct pool table sizes if you need to refelt your pool table
The industry norm is supplied, pre-cut pool table felt for the refelting service. If an 8-foot table is expected to be serviced and we encounter a 9-foot table then we may not even have the correct cloth size to finish your job which could also incur additional trip charges.
If the pool table turns out to be a different size this could really complicate the job for the pool table installers because the table may not fit in the room and also the cut of felt may not cover the entire table.
In most cases, this will change the price of the service, whether it is a pool table setup, installation or a complete move. Sometimes there could be a repair that may have gone unnoticed at the time of the purchase and you find out about it once the pool table is in pieces.
If said repair is minor we may be able to fix it right at the time of installation, however, if the issue requires additional materials that we were not aware of we will have to come back for a second appointment to properly handle your pool table repair.
Pool table room sizes are important for a successful job and it’s super handy to know when checking the pool table size you can get.
