Why JPGavan

Repaired by the people who make bats

JPGavan isn't just a repair shop — we're bat makers. For over 14 years we've been shaping, pressing and finishing cricket bats in our Sydney workshop, so we understand exactly how a bat is built, how it should feel, and how to bring it back to its best.

Our weight reductions and adjustments are done by hand by professional bat makers — not rushed through a machine — so your bat's balance and pickup are perfected, not just its weight.

Thousands of bats have been repaired, refurbished or adjusted on our bench — from juniors' first bats to the bats of professional players. See the pro player bats we've repaired →

8yr old George loves his “new” refurbished JPG
