Delivery and Installation of a Slate Pool Table
Are you thinking about buying a slate pool table but still unsure whether to assemble it yourself or have it professionally installed?
A slate pool table is delivered in separate parts and requires precise assembly. At Buffalo, you can choose between two options: pallet delivery or professional installation by our experienced installers.
Why professional installation matters
Assembling and levelling a slate pool table is specialist work. The individual slate sections must be carefully aligned and the joints finished perfectly before the cloth can be stretched. This ensures a completely level playing surface and optimal playing performance. Our experienced installers typically spend 4 to 6 hours on site assembling the table. In addition, several hours of preparation are carried out in advance, such as covering the cushions with the pool cloth.
Watch the video below to see how a slate pool table is delivered and installed.
Option 1: Pallet delivery and self-assembly
Your slate pool table can be delivered in the Netherlands and Belgium. The table is delivered on a pallet by our transport partner to ground level. The individual parts are supplied unassembled. You are responsible for moving the parts to the desired location, assembling the table and levelling it correctly.
Option 2: Professional installation by our installers
Would you like your pool table professionally installed? For deliveries within the Netherlands (excluding the Waddeneilanden) and Belgium, you can simply select our installation service when placing your order in our webshop. After your order has been placed, we will contact you to arrange an installation appointment. Our installers will assemble the pool table at your preferred location, level it precisely and deliver it ready to play.
Please note: if the pool table needs to be delivered to another floor, such as an upper floor or basement, and there is no suitable lift available, an additional charge applies per floor. This option can also be selected during checkout.
Don't forget your accessories
Not every pool table is supplied with pool cues, pool balls, chalk or a triangle as standard. Check in advance which accessories are included with your chosen pool table and order any missing accessories at the same time.
Waddeneilanden and deliveries outside the Netherlands and Belgium
Installation of a slate pool table on the Waddeneilanden or in other countries is available on request.
