Can anyone recommend a decent tent repair place in the North West / North Wales area please?

I managed to rip a seam on the last outing we had.

Thanks

Debbie

Hi,

May be worth contacting your nearest Go Outdoors, think there is one in Stockport, don't know how far away that is from you. Our local one in Oxford has an in house repair service that are very good, a friend had a tent repaired by them last year and it was done very well and he is fussy to say the least.

Hi Debbie.

The place Keely mentioned that Fiona used was TVS at Bolton, I have used them myself, they are a Cabanon approved service agent, so they will do a good job.

Thanks for the extra replies. I actually used Camperlands in Manchester in the end. They did a fantastic job, the damage was worse than I remembered. Think it cost about £70 for the repair. Really pleased with the result and would definately use them again.
