I purchased a Brunswick snooker table from Derrick. I feel lucky to have been able to deal with him. He educated me, was so good with my many questions throughout the process. My expectations were exceeded in every way. He and his wife and 2 sons delivered and set up the table, what an absolute perfectionist. This was the epitome of white glove service in every way.

Cannot say enough good things about the quality of the job, his attention to detail and the installation - he's got his PhD in Pool Tables that's for sure - highly recommend!!!!

I can’t recommend Derrick or his services enough. You know..you don’t really notice how few craftsman, tradesman, “experts” that you deal with anymore..well, until you deal with them. And it’s always a great feeling to work with and learn from folks who’ve devoted their careers to providing the services and expertise that you use to be able to find easily, but even in todays world of opinions and overwhelming amounts of information, is actually not easy to find.That’s Derrick.I’m a retired contractor. One of the aspects of being a contractor that I never enjoyed is the constant restrain of actual information they share. Most contractors feel that their value is in their knowledge and that as soon as they tell a potential client how they’d do a job, that instead of hiring them, that person will grab the cheapest guy they can find and do the job for cheaper. That constant dance of only sharing as much information as necessary is “the norm” across most trades, industries and professions.Not Derrick. He’s the opposite. He is unselfishly happy to share his encyclopedic amounts of expertise and experience, without hesitation or motive.If your need is billiard related and you don’t at least start by contacting Derrick, you’re doing it wrong. He might very well point you in a different direction..but at least you’ll know it’s the right one!

I cannot review what I ordered as it is in progress. I’m dealing with Billiard Restorations based on Derricks reputation and positive reviews. I started seeking an early Gold Crown but the Centennials I saw on Derrick’s website really caught my attention. Getting a black lacquered 9’ delivered to Florida. Can’t wait. Will follow up.

For sometime, I had been looking for a vintage Brunswick Gold Crown cue rack. I found BRS online and I was thrilled to learn they had one in stock and would restore it for a very reasonable price. It was timely completed and shipped to me in Kentucky. The restoration work was beautiful. Unfortunately, it was mishandled by UPS and arrived damaged. BRS offered a full refund which I refused. Derrick had done fabulous work and the rack had value even in its damaged state. We quickly settled on a partial refund amount. BRS even offered to send me the left over paint which, as it turns out, made getting it repaired locally much easier. When the paint and partial refund arrived, I was quite surprised to see the check was for MORE than we agreed. I cannot say enough good things about BRS. Over and above the quality, skill and professionalism of the work, Derrick and BRS have tremendous honesty and integrity. I give BRS my highest recommendation.

This is the very best of the best in the antique billiard table restoration world. I own a billiard supply in OKC called SolidsNStripes / A.J. Gill Billiards and we have done business with Derrick Tiers for over 20 years now as of 2019. I hate to admit it but Derrick does even better work than we do. He does a lot more antique pool table restoration work than we do for sure. We work on probably 35 antique billiard and snooker tables every year but only 2-3 of these are actual or near complete restorations. This is the only thing Derrick does ever day. There’s no way you can find a better qualified person to do work on your antique pool table period. Don’t get me wrong, I.m not saying we won’t do a great job for you but sometimes you just gotta give it up to the best of the best.

We contacted Derrick about finding a refurbished mid century modern Brunswick pool table like the one we grew up playing on. He started the process and took his time, delivered and installed the table at our home in Covington, LA. Him and his sons are true craftsman at their job, true artist. Our table is beautiful, plays amazing and not a flaw on it. Thank you Derrick.

When you decide that a vintage pool table is in your future, look no further than Derrick at Billiards Restoration Services. Derrick (and his staff) is a not only an artist who is dedicated to his profession, but he's also a very nice guy. When you want that special addition to your man cave, do yourself a favor, check his website and then call Derrick Tiers.
