I purchased a new pool table and assembled it myself. I needed to hire a pro to install the felt.
I located A-1 Billiards SWFL on Craiglist. I called and talked to David Cravens and he talked about how professional his company was and assured me they were the best in the area. He was supposed to come and help me with the install himself.
David did not come himself but he sent two young guys out to do the install; Stacey and Luigi.
The guys used old tools and not the proper tools. They stripped nearly every screw under the bed of the table. When installing the felt and fitting the pockets, Stacey cut the felt (midway on the slate) bed on all the pockets. It is most notable on the side pockets. When I asked why he did that his reply was you can only see it it you stick your head in the pocket.
Luigi applied the felt to the rails and I could see that he did not stretch the felt as he went down the rail with the staple gun.
