Care and Repair
Now you've got your cricket bat, it's crucial that you ensure it's properly prepared before use. Watch our video below on how to prepare your bat, and further down the page all the information you might need when it comes to getting a repair.
Our dedicated bat makers perform some amazing work keeping pro’s favoured bats performing for as long as possible.
You can have your bat worked on here at our Robertsbridge factory too, benefiting from the same expertise as top international players.
Whether you need a handle replacing, some cracks sealing, a general clean up, the weight adjusting, the shape and fittings customising, or some preparation work applied, the GN Bat Service Wizard is the place to start.
You’ll be able to select the service to match your needs with clear information on the process, different options and prices
Once received our team will carefully assess your bat and review your requests/preferences before passing the bat onto our bat makers, taking the opportunity to liaise with you if any further details are required.
Applying the same skills, techniques and attention to detail as when your bat was first made, our bat makers here in our Robertsbridge factory will carefully apply the necessary work, which for all blade repair, refurbishment and adjustment services will include cleaning and redressing the blade with your choice of grips, labels and protective fittings.
Services typically take 5-10 days to work through, dependent on the time of year and type of work required, we do have priority processing options available.
The cost depends on the type of damage to your bat. A cosmetic service is as little as £30, while a bat can have a handle replaced with a full blade refurbishment for under £60.
We can help you keep your favourite bat going or maintain performance quality. It's always good to have a reliable spare in the kit bag, or maybe to use in the nets to prolong the life of a new bat.
You might also need to make some minor adjustments to your bat - a reduction in weight, or size to conform with the new ICC regulations. These can all be done by our team of experts.
If your bat can't be repaired, we’ll give you £25 towards a new 5* or higher bat through our site
