Roof canvas replacement

[BarneyBongo]

Hi all,

I'm new to the bongo world having just bought one this weekend to replace my old faithful T4. There is a tear in the roof fabric and although it currently has a patch job I just wanted to know if anyone could recommend anywhere I could get the whole canvas replaced. I looked on google and didn't have much luck, and just wanted to know if anyone had any recommendations? And also how much would I be looking at?

Any and all advice greatly received.

Many Thanks
Richie

You can either find a replacement used one from one of the breakers or get new ones made to a similar design like here https://www.proudtopop.co.uk/camper/kba ... topop.html I've replace mine once so far but it has another tear now and trying to make up my mind which route to go again!

Thanks Geoff,

That's great I'll drop them a line, do you mind me asking roughly how much it cost you?

Cheers

The replacement from a Breaker was about £200-300, the made to measure quite a bit more it seems, depends on zips etc you want fitted.
Do check the size of the tents before replacing, there are at least two and possibly three different heights over the years, and it needs measurement to be certain if replacing!

Hi all,

Does anyone know of a company that will replace the entire fly netting? I've tried repairing with the usual recommended 'patch' products but tears in mine are too large. As close as to Isle of Wight as possible but will consider anywhere!

Thanks,

Steve
