A good deckchair frame lasts a lifetime. The canvas doesn't have to be original.

If you have a deckchair or directors chair that you love: one that fits perfectly, that has a great frame, that's been in the family for years, there's no reason to replace it just because the canvas has worn out. Our canvas replacement service exists precisely for this situation: to give well-loved chairs a new lease of life in any fabric from our range, without the expense or waste of starting again from scratch.

We offer 2 routes depending on how your chair is constructed. If your canvas attaches via a dowelling rod at each end, as most traditional folding deckchairs and directors chairs do, we can make a replacement sling to your exact measurements in any of our deckchair canvas fabrics. Choose your colourway, send us your old covers/slings as templates, and we'll cut and finish it ready to drop straight in. If you'd prefer to do the job yourself, we sell the canvas by the metre with full guidance on how to measure, cut, and fit it, and our step-by-step video guide walks you through the whole process from start to finish.

For directors chairs and other styles where the canvas is tacked or stapled rather than threaded, we can discuss a made-to-measure cover depending on the chair in question. Get in touch with the details and we'll advise on the best approach.

Every replacement canvas is made from the same fabric available across the rest of the site: 100% cotton deckchair canvas, woven traditionally, in a wide range of classic and contemporary stripe colourways. Durable, beautiful, and made to be sat in. Browse the options below or contact us to discuss your chair.
