1. Pricing InfoThe price of a full size snooker table promoted on the Internet can vary between a few hundred and a several thousand pounds. Because a full size table can literally last forever (snooker table slates will never degrade and protected hardwoods will never lose their structure) there is an ever growing national stock. The price variations reflect the difference between the salvage value of unwanted tables, and the current retail price of a bespoke, modern-tournament table, built to your own design and style preferences. Inclusive of VAT and accessories
*Available in all hardwoods and in a range of finishes including French polishing
|
2. Room SizesFor serious snooker you need to allow at least a full size cue length (57-58 inches) as a perimeter to surround the play surface of the snooker table. If you prefer to play with a shorter cue, perhaps with a smaller table, then the room size can be smaller. The chart below offers sample dimensions as a preliminary guide. Always check with us on precise room sizing and layout before placing an order

3. About Matchsnooker
Matchplay Full Size Tables by Alan PhillipsAlan Phillips, owner of Matchsnooker, has been making snooker tables for over 30 years. Equally important, he has played competition snooker at the highest regional level. Therefore not only does he know how a competition snooker table should be made, he knows how it should play. He is one of only a very few remaining snooker table makers specialising in full size tables. Every full-size snooker table is personally installed by Alan. Made to order full size snooker tablesAll tables are made to order, complying with international match-play standards. Pockets sizes and cushion-rubber thicknesses conform to the playing of a full size snooker ball, and all other tournament rules as specified under section 1 of the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association.
All variable snooker table
specifications are agreed with the client. Any hardwood can be ordered, with any
type of finish, including French polishing. The most popular woods for snooker
tables are oak, mahogany, beech and ash. Walnut and other exotic wood can also
be obtained.
All parts are made from solid hardwoods for durability and accuracy.
Boardroom tops, office table-tops and dining tops are available with each model.
Top quality, 5-piece Italians slate is normally used for
a full size snooker table, although prized Welsh slate is occasionally
available. Reclaimed old style steel blocks can also be fitted.
Alan takes on commissions for snooker tables throughout the UK
and Ireland. He has agents covering Germany, Cyprus and Switzerland. He can
arrange personal installations for his bespoke snooker tables anywhere around
the world |

5. Delivery & InstallationAttention to every detailCommissions for full size snooker tables are normally agreed by email and phone conversations and,where practical, visiting (by appointment) our workshop in Hull. Every aspect of the commission will ensure that (a) we build the exact full size snooker table you want, and equally important (b) we plan for all contingencies in the delivery and installation sequence. Measurements, Lighting and Dining?Dimensions of your room, and your desired optimum play experience, are the prime critical factors. Will the positioning of your full size snooker table require a surrounding convivial space? Which is the preferred method of table lighting, and are the electrics in situ? Is there sufficient flooring strength to sustain a full size snooker table? What is the preferred fixed playing height if the full size snooker table is also to double as a dining or conference table? Site survey?A full size table has long beams and incorporates extremely heavy 5-piece slates. If there is no adjacent access, or if the snooker room is not on the ground floor, or the room is peculiar, we may need to supervise a pre-install survey of the location. Because of these variable issues, not least the travelling distance from Hull, we apply a delivery and installation cost-schedule to all customer commissions for full size snooker tables.
Delivery and installation chargesPrices are based on full-cost allocation, including a 2-man dedicated installation team, and an exclusive us-to-you delivery, at a mutually agreed time and date. Prices are ex-Hull and assume a ground floor location with easy access and adjacent parking.
