Good afternoon all,
Much needed help and advice needed

any help would be so much appreciated...
I have a trigano randger 575 folding camper which I've had for many years now..so many amazing camping trips in her...My problem is that her roof has seen much better days, she's been patched up and sewn in the past, but now she has a huge rip right across the top...
It definitely needs replacing the canvas is so weak...has anyone on here had the same thing happen and how did you repair yours? money is quite tight unfortunately so ordering a new roof is out of the question! Any help whatsoever would be appreciated more than you know there is a photo in my gallery of the rip..many thanks
Louise

My husband made a double canvas awning for our trailer tent. He sewedit on a household sewing machine. If you could find a second hand canvas that isn’t perfect, on the sale site here or ebay maybe, you could sew your own or maybe you know someone who would be kind enough to do it for you? You may even be lucky enough to find a replacement canvas for a reasonable price? I hope you find a solution and get your camper up and running again for many more camping trips.
