Meet Your Stringer.

I'm a tennis coach and stringer originally from the Netherlands, now based in Dublin — where I moved for my family, my Irish partner and our two daughters. Tennis has been a constant throughout: I've been stringing for over 5 years and have done 500+ rackets, from club players to professionals.

In Amsterdam, I ran Racketservice Amsterdam and built up a loyal base of players who trusted me with their rackets — including ex-WTA professional Michela Xibilia. Now I've brought the same service and the same standards to Dublin.

Every racket I string gets my full attention. I use a professional Pro's Pro electric stringing machine, work only with handpicked premium strings, and always take the time to give honest advice about what will work best for your game.

What Players Say.

★★★★★

"My string broke the day before a match. Elmer restrung my racket within a few hours on a Saturday, used quality Yonex strings, included a new grip, and took the time to recommend the right string for my style. Easy to reach, right by the M50/N7. Highly recommended!"

FAQ

Common
Questions.

Anything else? Just WhatsApp us.

A good rule of thumb: restring as many times per year as you play per week. Strings lose tension and elasticity over time even without breaking. But honestly — I'm not the one to tell you what to do. Guess the best way is to try your mate's new strings, see if it makes a difference to you and decide for yourself.
Drop-off and pick-up is at my home address in Parkwest, D12 or at Castleknock Lawn Tennis Club — both are 5–10 minutes from the M50 with free parking on site. If you're elsewhere in Dublin, contact me via WhatsApp to arrange an alternative. Looking for tennis racket restringing near me? We serve players across Dublin.
No problem — we offer a pick-up and drop-off service for €7.50. Contact Elmer via WhatsApp to arrange a convenient time and location.
Lower tensions (21–24 kg) give more power; higher tensions (24–28 kg) give more control. We'll advise you on the right tension when you book.
Yes — every single restring includes a fresh overgrip fitted at no extra charge. Your racket is ready to play the moment you pick it up.
Yes — Pro's Pro overgrips available in white, black and baby blue. 4 pack for €10, available on collection of your racket.
We accept cash and Revolut. Payment is made on collection of your racket.
Same day restringing is available — contact us via WhatsApp to check availability. Turnaround depends on current demand, but we'll always do our best to get your racket back to you as quickly as possible.
Based in Parkwest D12 and at Castleknock Lawn Tennis Club — both with free parking and easy access from the M50. We serve tennis players across Dublin, including Ranelagh, Rathmines, Donnybrook, Clontarf, Terenure, Sandymount, Lucan and beyond. Not sure if you're too far? Drop Elmer a WhatsApp and we'll figure something out.
Absolutely — many of our customers play at Dublin's public courts including Herbert Park, Bushy Park, St. Anne's Park, Palmerston Park, Fairview Park, Tymon Park, Corkagh Park, Iveagh Gardens and Eamonn Park. No club membership needed — just bring your racket and we'll take care of the rest.
No — we specialise exclusively in tennis rackets. For badminton restringing, you're best off contacting a dedicated badminton shop.
No — padel rackets have a solid foam core and don't have strings, so there's nothing to restring. If you play both padel and tennis, we're happy to take care of your tennis racket!
The most common "repair" a tennis racket needs is fresh strings — broken or dead strings are responsible for most performance issues. If you're not sure whether your racket needs restringing or something else, send Elmer a WhatsApp with a photo and he'll advise you honestly.
Yes, absolutely. If you have your own strings, we charge €15 for the labour.
