When we contemplate moving a pool table, it might seem tempting to just tilt and carry it, but that’s a recipe for disaster. The rigid slate bed is incredibly heavy, and trying to drag or tilt it as a whole can crack the slate and warp the frame. That’s why we can’t simply lift and carry it like a regular piece of furniture.
Instead, we need to break down the pool table into its components. This approach guarantees we protect the slate, which is vital since it allows the balls to roll true. By disassembling, we also prevent any structural damage to the frame.
As Cobb Moving Company, we recognize the importance of handling each piece with care, making certain everything is transported safely. Once we’ve reached the new location, we’ll reassemble and precisely re-level the table, so it’s ready for your next game without any issues.
How We Disassemble the Rails, Felt, and Slate
To start disassembling a pool table, we first remove the pockets and rails. It’s essential to handle these components carefully to prevent any damage.
Once the pockets and rails are off, we turn our attention to the felt. This cloth is either stapled or glued to the slate, and we carefully unstaple or unglue it to guarantee it remains intact for reassembly.
Next, we focus on the slate bed. A typical Kennesaw table’s slate comes in three separate pieces, making it easier to manage. We unbolt these from the frame with precision, taking care to avoid any chipping or cracking.
Finally, we dismantle the frame and legs, labeling each part for effortless reassembly. This systematic approach guarantees the table is safely disassembled and ready for transport.
Our detailed process assures that your table will be reassembled and re-leveled perfectly, so it plays just as it did before.
Transporting Heavy Slate Without Cracks or Warping
Handling slate is essential to preserving your pool table’s integrity. We understand that the slate, composed of three heavy bed pieces, is the crux of your table. It weighs several hundred pounds, and mishandling can lead to cracks. That’s why we always transport your table in pieces, never assembled.
Each slate piece is carefully padded and carried separately by multiple movers. This guarantees that no single piece bears too much stress. Once loaded, we secure them flat and stable in the truck, preventing any movement during transit. This method safeguards against damage, maintaining the quality of your table.
Our team is trained to handle these fragile components with precision. We assess weight, access, and clearances before setting a date, ensuring every step is meticulously planned.
Trust us to transport your slate safely, so it remains flawless for reassembly. Your pool table deserves nothing less.
Reassembly and Precision Re-Leveling for True Roll
Reassembling your pool table is where precision truly matters. We begin by rebuilding the frame, ensuring every component fits perfectly.
Next, we carefully reset the slate pieces, aligning them meticulously. The seams between these pieces are waxed or filled until they’re completely flush, creating a seamless surface.
The most essential step is leveling the entire bed. Using a machinist’s level, we adjust with shims until it’s perfectly flat, ensuring the balls roll true. Skipping this step can leave your table playing off-line, which is why it’s important to rely on specialists like us.
General moving crews might overlook this precision, but our expertise guarantees a perfectly aligned and balanced table.
We recognize how significant it’s for your games in Kennesaw to be as enjoyable as possible. Trust in our attention to detail to keep your pool table performing at its best.
New Felt and Final Playing-Surface Check
While the existing cloth might still be in decent shape, fresh felt guarantees the truest playing surface for your pool table. We recognize how vital this is for your game, so we suggest updating the felt when the old cloth is worn or stretched too thin.
Our team can restretch existing felt if it’s in good condition, but nothing beats the precision of new material.
Once the felt is in place, we conduct a thorough playing-surface check. We verify the table in Kennesaw is perfectly level, with tight rails and a smooth roll.
It’s not just about moving and reassembling; it’s about handing back a table ready for action. We take pride in making certain every detail is right so you can enjoy your game with confidence.
With everything checked and confirmed, your table is ready for countless memorable matches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you really have to take a pool table apart to move it?
Yes; a slate table must be broken down to rails, felt and slate, because dragging it whole cracks the slate and warps the frame.
How heavy is the slate inside a pool table?
Slate typically comes in three bed pieces totaling several hundred pounds, so each piece is carried and transported separately with padding.
Will my pool table need new felt after the move?
The crew can restretch felt that’s in good shape, but fresh felt gives the truest surface and is recommended when the old cloth is worn or thin.
Why does a pool table have to be re-leveled after moving?
The reset slate seams must be waxed and leveled with a precision level and shims so balls roll straight; skipping it leaves the table playing off.
Can you move a one-piece slate, bar-size, or antique pool table?
Yes; one-piece slate, coin-op and antique tables need extra crew and heavier padding, so we review access and table type before move day.
