Repair tear in overhang of awning

I've no direct experience but I'd expect an awning repairer to be able to do the job.

Have you checked the ads at the back of the mag, Ro, as I'm sure I've seen awning repairs advertised.

I'll have a look. Thank you! 

If it's not too big a tear, repair tape works well. I once got a friend to sew up a damaged awning on her heavy duty sewing machine but the fabric was fairly light weight and the awning had recurring weak spots. I would imagine the fabric is fairly substantial on a trailer tent so tape shoud be ok (always take some away with you!) Our son is about to put a tow hitch on his car, he's finally decided to go for something similar for his family, hope you all have fun with yours Rowena! 🤸‍♂️

As above, a local awning/tent repairer will easily sort it. I ripped the mud skirt of a previous awning ... I'd left a peg in it  .... and a local place repaired it for not very much. You could hardly tell where the repair was.

There's a company about ten minutes from my home that does tent/awning repairs; obviously too far for you, but I'm sure you could find one close to home.

Lancashire Sports Repairs - Burnley.  They did a brilliant job on my Brasher boots and replaced a zip in son's anorak.
