Caravan Awning Repairs Gold Coast
Awning trouble? We’ve got you covered
Awning dramas have an uncanny way of showing up at the worst time. A snapped arm mid-trip or a fabric tear after a windy night at the caravan park? It’s the last thing you want to deal with when you’re on the road.
But don’t worry, because whether it’s a small rip, a bent arm, a roller that won’t wind in straight, or a motorised awning that’s stopped playing ball, the team at The Caravan Guys can get it sorted for you. We’re your local caravan awning repair and replacement specialists on the Gold Coast, working out of our Arundel workshop and covering Brisbane and the surrounding areas.
And if you can’t make it into the workshop? No problem - we also do on-road visits so you’re not stuck waiting around. Whether it’s a quick fabric patch or your awning’s had it and needs a full replacement, we’ll have you sorted and ready for your next stretch of Van Life.

What we fix
Awnings can take a real beating out on the road. Here’s the awning trouble we come across the most for Gold Coast and Brisbane van owners.
Fabric tears & holes
The sun, wind and the odd stray branch all take their toll on awning fabric. We can patch small tears or replace the canopy if it’s beyond saving.
Bent or broken arms
A gust of wind or a knock while packing up can bend or snap an awning arm. We’ll straighten, repair, or replace it so it’s safe to use again.
Roller & spring issues
Awning winding in crooked, sagging, or not retracting at all? That usually comes down to the roller tube or spring tension, and we know exactly what to check to sort it.
Motorised awning faults
If your electric awning has stopped responding, it could be the motor, the wiring, or even a dodgy sensor. We’ll diagnose it and get you moving again.
Storm & wind damage
A storm can wreck an awning fast, and it’s often an insurance job. We can handle hail damage repairs and can work directly with your insurance repair claim.
Full awning replacement
Sometimes a repair won’t cut it, whether it’s because of the cost, age, or simply damage that’s just too far gone. We’ll supply and fit a full replacement awning so you’re not stuck without shade.

Frequently asked questions - awning repairs
It depends on what’s gone wrong - a small fabric patch is a lot cheaper than a new arm or motor. Give us a call on (07) 5500 5213, and we can give you a better idea once we know what you’re dealing with.

“Quality service, experience and no frills! Drew and the team transformed our 2021 Jayco Lark touring into the ultimate glamping rig — heaps of solar, a 240V 2000W inverter, a huge lithium battery, an electric water tap, and USB ports everywhere for the kids.
