After 4 years of use, my Clarke Instant Garage (also known as a portable garage in the US) finally failed during a storm. The cover had been tearing for a while, but high winds ripped it apart completely.
In this video I show how I repaired the sides using an eyelet grommet tool, cut away the destroyed roof section, and fitted a new oversized replacement cover from Vevor.
If you’ve been searching for a portable garage replacement cover or wondering how long these instant garages last, this video covers my long-term review and what you can do to save yours.

About me:
I'm Aiden and I'm documenting what was supposed to be my barn conversion, which has now ended up being a new build. I don't have a trade, I just have a go and I'll be doing lots of work myself. This is the boring bit in grand designs that you don't get to see. Subscribe and follow along to find out how our future home turns out.
