Hi everyone, Just treated ourselves to a new outwell Vermount. First outting and our 11 month old puppy scratched at the inner door to get out, causing a 30cm rip almost following the zip. Can anyone recommend a good repair company in the shropshire/ Midlands area please.

I've used the Canvas Repair Centre very recently ( for a makeover rather than a repair). The company were great to deal with and I'm really pleased with the work they've carried out.

I've nothing to compare them with, but I certainly couldn't fault the service, the craftsmanship, and the professionalism.

Top marks all round!

Just a thought - but this might be covered by credit card insurance?

Worth a look if you bought it by credit card...
