Hi

Can you get groundsheets in widths greater than 2.5m?  My awning is 4m x 4m.  If not, how would you recommend joining 2 sections?

Thank you

This site does various types up to 3m. http://www.breathablegroundsheet.co.uk/

 Just as a suggestion, what we do in our tent is lay one of the cheap blue sheets on the ground and then put the cheap 'picnic' rugs on top. The rugs are waterproof on the back, easy to lift and shake clean, warm underfoot and only cost about £4.00 each.

The only way I can think of joing two sections would be to overlap and peg the two together with flat groundsheet pegs!

We have a breathable groundsheet that we put down on top of our zipped in one on the Stratos.

We couldn't get a groundsheet wide enough to cover this in one piece so we have two overlapping pieces.

I was concerned about tripping over this but it hasn't been a problem, most of the join goes under our kitchen table.
