Awning manufacture & Repair

Post by Jabbawocky » Thu Feb 23, 2012 9:43 pm

HI all

After our first two week holiday in the Dormobile, we realised we needed more undercover space and to protect the back door in bad weather. We needed an awning that could withstand very bad weather as we do like to camp in the mountains.

I rang everyone in the north of England and no one would make me a bespoke awning, except Tent Valeting Services. Graham who runs TVS has been in the industry for ever and knows tents/awnings inside out. I can highly recommend them.
They can be found here, http://www.tentvaletingservices.co.uk/

Here is the awning they made for us.

Hi Smirf

Two of the lads on here have/had awnings for their Carawagons and I'm sure they would be happy to show you how it goes. Overlander had an original awning and it went with the Carawagon when he sold it recently. TVS recommended above, carried out repairs on Overlanders awning whilst they made my awning.

You need to come and join us on one of the camping weekend/trips

Cheers Mick
