Where to find replacement popup canvas

[Kostyan]

My 2007 r-design travel crusier hybrid seems to need canvas replaced on the front popup. Can you guys recommend a place to buy this?

If its like a gasket type thing that sews onto the canvas, maybe it can be repaired? Then i would look for an awning shop. Until then get some pop up gizmos, or a tarp for over the tent end.

The problem is not just in fabric but the plastic seal/ gasket that clicks in place in camper where it attaches to create the watertight seal. Right now i make do with duct tape but i discovered this introduced a water leak where one of the boards has rotten. From what I read, r-design manufacturer is out of business as of 2014 so left only to find a custom fabricator option

Bear creak or canvas replacements. Both are the go to for the pop up people. One only makes canvas tenting though, so it depends on what you want. You might want to try your manafature first, they may have something made allready that can be cheaper. There is a decent wait now for replacement tenting due to the pandemic. Good luck.

Try searching for awning and tent makers in your area. With your old ones for a pattern, they should be able to make replacements. Years ago my Uncle ran a marina and quickly realized that there was a demand for the soft, canvas, upholstery products as well as mechanical. My Aunt, always handy with a needle and thread, soon had a thriving business. Different options, especially if your RV manufacturer doesn’t offer replacements or out of business.
Another option would be to ask an RV dealer where they get there repairs or replacements.

Many years ago we replaced the fabric on our popup and I think we bought from some business in central Florida. Don't recall the name or location, that was 5 or 6 RVs ago. I thought we found the place on eBay but I didn't see anything there today.
