Bat Repairs

We undertake a wide variety of bat repairs at Talent Cricket (over 1000 last year) from all types of blade repair, to re-handling. We also re-blade cricket bats and have custom bats made as well to any specification. The custom bat service is normally used by someone who has a particular favourite bat and wishes to have an exact copy made. If you require any further information and an outline quote then please contact us for more details.

Knocking In

Our comprehensive knocking in service includes oiling, knocking in by hand with a lignum mallet and fitting of an Anti scuff sheet and toe guard if required. This service is free on full size bats purchased from us over the value of £150, and junior bats over £70, with a charge of £15 on all other bats. We also offer knocking in on bats purchased from other sources and this costs £20, with the option of a toe guard for an additional £5. Please note we only accept reputable English Willow bats and not cheap EBay ripoffs. We try to complete the knocking process as quickly as possible, but during busy periods this can take up to 2 weeks.

Bat Engraving and Trophies

We offer a bat engraving service which means that your bat can be personalised with your name, nickname or whatever message you choose.
