RACQUET STRINGING SERVICES IN EDINBURGH & LOTHIANS
 
 
welcome to rapid racquet
 

Stringing services provided to players at:

2011 & 2012 East of Scotland Masters (Squash)

2011 & 2012 Artemis Open (Squash)

 

Over time, even the best racquet strings will lose their tension, potentially affecting the performance of the racquet. If your strings are broken, or are showings signs of wear and tear, it is probably time for a restring.

 

Rapid Racquet provides a quick turn-around and personal service to players of West Lothian & Edinburgh.   We collect and return racquets in Edinburgh (West End) on Mondays and Thursdays at around 5.30pm.

DELIVERY AND COLLECTION

PLEASE NOTE: We do not provide a collection and delivery service.

However you can drop your racquet with me at home (Kirknewton), my office during lunch time (Bankhead Crossway, Sighthill) or at my regular Edinburgh collection and returns outside Fraser's (West End) every Monday and Thursday from around 5pm until 5.30pm.

 

Strings should hold their tension for at least 6 months after which they should be regularly checked.

You should restring when tension has noticeably reduced.  As a rule of thumb, the number of times you play a week should be the number of times you restring per year.  If you play twice a week then you should restring every six months.

 

Please note that should a crack be found in the frame of the racquet it can still be restrung, if the owner desires it and accepts that the restring will be carried out at their own risk.

Full electronic restring with accuracy to the nearest 0.1lbs. Featuring linear pull with constant string tension to reduce creepage and deliver a precise restring suited to your play.
