Pool Table Felt Replacement, Refelting & Recovering
Worn, torn, or faded cloth takes the life out of a good table. We handle pool table felt replacement across Northern Colorado and Southern Wyoming, using premium Simonis and Championship Invitational cloth in a wide range of colors, so your table plays true and looks the way you want it.
Refelting, recovering, recloth, new felt. They all mean the same job, and it is the one we do most.
A felt replacement is also the right time to check the cushions and level, since the table is already apart. We inspect everything while we are in there and tell you straight if anything else needs attention.
Signs your table needs new felt
- Rips, burns, or worn spots in the cloth
- Balls that roll off line on a level table
- Slow or dead cushions
- Fuzzing or pilling along the break area and pocket mouths
- A color change to match a redone room
- A pre-owned table you want brought back to life
What the job includes
- Strip and dispose of the old cloth and staples
- Inspect the slate bed for cracks or separation
- Clean and prep the slate
- New cloth applied with a professional heat and stretch method
- Cushion rails inspected and reseated
- Reassembly, pocket check, level, and a final play test
Worsted or napped cloth
Worsted cloth like Simonis plays faster and lasts longer, and it is what most leagues and serious players want. Napped cloth costs less up front and has a softer, slower roll. We stock both and will tell you which one suits how your table actually gets used.
Come see the cloth colors in person at our Fort Collins showroom, or call 970-419-0816 and we will bring options to you.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to refelt a pool table?
Call or text (970) 419-0816 and we will give you a number over the phone. We quote before anything is scheduled, and cloth choice is the main thing that affects the total.
Is refelting the same as recovering or felt replacement?
Yes. Refelting, recovering, felt replacement, and recloth all describe the same job. The old cloth comes off, the slate gets inspected and prepped, and new cloth goes on the bed and rails.
How long does a felt replacement take?
The work itself is typically done in a single visit. The table is apart for the job, so it is also the right time to address cushions or leveling.
How often should a pool table be refelted?
A home table with regular play usually needs new cloth every few years. Commercial tables that see daily play need it more often. Rips, a worn break area, and balls that drift on a level table are the usual signs.
What cloth colors can I choose from?
We stock Simonis and Championship Invitational cloth in a wide range of colors. See our pool table cloth colors page, or look at samples in person at the Fort Collins showroom.
