Pool Table Care
Essential Tips for Maintenance
How often should I clean my pool table?
Regularly cleaning your pool table is essential to maintain its performance and appearance. To keep it in top condition, clean your table once a week to remove dust, chalk buildup, and other debris. If your table gets heavy use, such as in a home pool table setup or pool table for home, you may want to clean it more frequently. This ensures the cloth and slate bed stay in great shape and prolongs the life of your table.
What should I use to clean my pool table cloth?
When cleaning your pool table cloth, use a pool table brush designed specifically for this purpose to remove dust and chalk buildup. Avoid household cleaning products, as they can damage the fabric and affect the playing surface. For a deeper clean, use pool table cloth cleaners that are safe for your table's material to keep it looking like new and ensure smooth gameplay.
Is it necessary to cover the pool table when not in use?
Yes, it is highly recommended to use a pool table cover when your table isn’t in use. A pool table cover helps protect the playing surface from dust, spills, and potential damage. It also shields the table from exposure to sunlight, which can damage the cloth and wood finish over time. Whether you have a luxury pool table or a standard pool table, using a cover ensures your table stays in pristine condition.
How do I replace damaged pool table cloth?
If your pool table cloth gets damaged, it’s important to replace it with care. Replacing the cloth involves removing the slate bed and ensuring it’s properly levelled before applying the new fabric. This should be done by an experienced professional to avoid any issues with the table’s performance.

Can I move the pool table on my own?
Moving a pool table requires careful handling. Given the weight and precision required, it’s not a task for amateurs. When relocating your pool table, it’s crucial to ensure the slate bed remains undamaged and the table stays properly levelled. We recommend hiring professionals to move your table, as they have the experience and tools to get the job done safely.
