Answer
Coleman tents are excellent value. I have three of them and they have all been brilliant.
You can find them in all outdoor or camping shops or buy online.
They do big family tents and backpacker tents and guarantee the waterproofing. I've never had a single problem with them in years of camping in very wet British weather and on the Alps and Andes and all over Europe.
Coleman is an American company with a world-wide presence, and has a large range of outdoor equipment in it's product list. For value for money Coleman is hard to beat.

Other very good firms to consider are Vango and Lichfield, both in the same group of companies which includes Trangia cooking equipment, and both very well established and highly respected.
Both do family tents and backpacker tents, both are British companies, and both have a very good reputation for quality.
Vango Force Ten tents are favourites on Everest. Vango gets involved with outdoor stuff and is a very good supporter of outdoor events.
My little mountain tent is a Vango and is excellent.
Lichfield isn't as well known but keeps on turning out good tents year after year. It's a solid and reliable company. I have one over thirty years old, bought for a £1. I reproofed it and it does a treat. Lovely tent.
A bit like Rayleigh Roadster bikes really. Not the flashiest around but a good standard bike.
Horace Dall got one across Iceland...the first man to do it on foot and bike right across the middle of Iceland from the south coast to the north. 1933. The bike was still running well forty years later. Horace lived near me in Luton. I learned my first bit of telescope making from him.
He didn't have a tent for the Iceland trip.
Tough guy, Horace.

How to repair a canvas camping tent?
Ivy
I noticed there is a tear in my canvas camping tent. Can it be fixed? How to do that?
Answer
1. Sew the sides of the damaged area together. This is similar to sewing clothing, except that thick canvas may require a large needle or awl and heavy duty or waxed string. These materials are available at outdoor specialty stores.
2. Spread seam sealer or beeswax to the sewn seam. This product is available at outdoor and camping specialty stores, and can vary depending on the make of your tent (canvas or nylon). Follow all product instructions and warnings for proper application details, including drying time.
3. Line up one of the patches so that it is centered with the inside area of the tear. The patch should be larger than the damaged area on all sides by at least 2 inches. Secure the patch with glue, which can also vary depending on the make of your tent. Follow product instructions for drying time; be sure the adhesive is completely dry before continuing.
4. Sew the patch into place to fully secure it. Using adhesive and stitches will help prevent the tear from spreading or from opening again.
5. Spread seam sealer or wax over the sewn seams and the edges of the patch for optimal protection.
6. Line up, glue and sew the other patch to the outside of the tear. Be sure that it lines up with the inner patch, as the two should be the same size. Apply sealer or wax to the seams and the edges of the patch.
