American Heritage Warranty
All American Heritage Billiard pool tables are guaranteed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and craftsmanship from the date of purchase of the original owner.
Warranty does not include re-leveling of the table after a successful initial installation.
Variations in wood materials are to be expected. Organic variations in grain, color, and texture are naturally occurring properties of wood and do not qualify for a warranty claim.

ABIA 1-Year Protection on Leveling, Cloth, & Installation Quality
When you choose an official ABIA member for your pool table installation or service, you receive a full 365-day extended service guarantee. This industry-leading protection ensures your pool table is installed correctly, leveled to professional standards, and covered against cloth defects or installation issues for an entire year.
This guarantee is designed to give homeowners and billiard enthusiasts complete confidence when investing in their pool table setup.
Why the ABIA Guarantee Matters
The American Billiard Installers Association (ABIA) created the industry’s first standardized installation guarantee to ensure customers get reliable, high-quality service every time. Pool table installation and leveling requires precision, and this guarantee ensures that your investment is protected long after the technician leaves your home.
What the ABIA Guarantee Covers
2. Pool Table Cloth Installation
Your cloth installation is guaranteed against:
- Wrinkles
- Improper stretching
- Defective or uneven application
- Rips or tears on the playfield
This ensures smooth, professional play and long-lasting performance.
3. Cloth Quality Guarantee
Cloth purchased through an ABIA member is covered for one year against:
- Factory defects
- Playfield tears
- Material flaws
If a claim is approved, the cloth and labor are replaced using the same color, with optional color changes available for an additional fee.
4. Coverage for New and Used Tables
Both new pool tables and used pool tables (with new cloth purchased through your installer) qualify for full one-year coverage.
Eligibility Requirements
To qualify for the official ABIA Installation Guarantee:
- The service must be performed by an official ABIA member company.
- You must register your guarantee within 5 days of installation.
- The table must remain in the same condition as when the original ABIA technician completed the service.
- Cloth must be purchased through an ABIA member to be covered.
What the Guarantee Does Not Cover
Certain conditions fall outside the ABIA installation and cloth guarantee:
- Tables moved, lifted, or scooted by anyone other than an ABIA member
- Existing cloth on used tables unless new cloth was purchased at service
- Pool tables over 9 ft in size
- Non-slate tables

Keeping your table in its original serviced condition and using ABIA members for all adjustments ensures your guarantee stays valid.
