Frequently Asked Questions

What size pool table will fit in my room?

To comfortably fit a pool table, you need enough space for both the table and cue movement. A standard 8-foot table requires approximately 13' x 17' of room space, while a 7-foot table needs about 12' x 16'. Allow at least 4 feet of clearance on all sides for proper gameplay.

What are the standard pool table sizes?

The most common pool table sizes are 7-foot (bar size), 8-foot (home standard), and 9-foot (tournament size). Most homeowners choose an 8-foot table because it offers a great balance between playability and space requirements.

What is the difference between slate and non-slate pool tables?

Slate tables use a solid stone playing surface that provides superior accuracy, durability, and long-term performance. Non-slate tables, typically MDF or wood, are more affordable and lighter but may warp over time and offer less consistent play.

How much does a quality pool table cost?

Quality pool tables typically range from about $2,000 to $10,000 or more. Entry-level tables start around $1,500–$3,000, while premium solid wood and slate tables can exceed $8,000 depending on craftsmanship, materials, and design.

Do you offer delivery and installation for pool tables?

Yes. Robbie’s Billiards provides professional delivery and installation throughout Maryland, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia. Their experienced installers ensure your table is properly assembled and precisely leveled for optimal performance.

How heavy is a pool table?

A slate pool table can weigh between 700 and 1,000 pounds or more, depending on size and construction. Because of this weight, professional handling is required for safe delivery and proper setup.

What type of pool table is best for home use?

For most homes, an 8-foot slate table is the best choice. It delivers a high-quality playing experience while fitting comfortably in many residential spaces. Robbie’s Billiards offers a range of styles to match both traditional and modern interiors.

What should I consider when choosing a pool table style?

Consider your room’s décor, finishes, leg design, and overall aesthetic. Pool tables are available in traditional, contemporary, and rustic styles, so choosing one that complements your space helps it function as both a game table and a centerpiece.

What accessories do I need with a pool table?

Essential accessories include cues, balls, a rack, chalk, and a brush. Many customers also add a cue rack, table cover, and proper lighting. Robbie’s Billiards offers complete accessory packages to help you get started.

Do you offer showroom locations where I can see pool tables in person?

Yes. Robbie’s Billiards has showroom locations where you can see and compare pool tables in person. Visiting a showroom allows you to evaluate build quality, finishes, and playability before making a decision.
