Table repair should begin with diagnosis, not an automatic cloth replacement. Look for a technician who treats bed, rails, level and cloth as one system.

Questions to ask

Request comparable job examples, tools, timing and warranty. Confirm site visits, who supplies materials and how the floor is protected during work.

The estimate

Separate diagnosis, removal, parts, cloth, delivery and follow-up levelling. A written estimate shows which replacements are actually necessary.

Acceptance

After the repair, roll a test ball, compare rail rebounds and inspect cloth under side light. Record the result in a handover note and keep the care instructions.
