MARTIN IAM NOT SURE IF THERE IS SUCH A PROFFESION AS A ZIPSMITH BUT WHEN I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM I GOT THE NEEDLE AND COTTON OUT AND STICHED THE END OF THE ZIP REALLY TIGHT TO FORM A SOLID PIECE TO SLOT INTO THE OTHER HALF OF YOUR ZIPPER

HOPE THIS HELPS AND GOOD LUCK

When this happened to our tent a few years ago we ended up having a new zip fitted. These people are allways recomended on the folding camper site for repairs.
