Here at Sam Leisure, we recommend re-clothing your table every 6 months to maintain optimal performance and presentation. However, before you re-cloth your table, it’s vital to check the condition of your table cushions. There’s no high-tech tool required—simply pinch the cushion. If it feels too hard and lacks a consistent give, it’s likely time to replace both the cushions and facing sets. Worn or hardened cushions, commonly referred to as “dead cushions,” can lead to uneven bounce, poor ball control, and a significantly reduced gameplay experience. Whether you run a venue or play for fun, replacing old cushions ensures the best possible playing conditions and helps protect your investment. A well-maintained table isn’t just a matter of aesthetics—it also directly influences profitability in commercial settings and overall enjoyment in recreational use. At Sam Leisure, we offer a comprehensive table servicing package, including expert re-clothing and re-rubbering. Our experienced staff are happy to help you assess your table’s needs and schedule professional maintenance.
