I have a small fabric tear right above the entry door. What type of repair can I perform. Thanks. Bill

There is a repair tape that can be used for a temporary repair. You can remove the awning fabric and have it repaired, or if it is faded badly, you can replace the complete awning fabric.

Awning Secret Repair. This is not a joke, it works GREAT
Sew the hole shut with Dental Floss..it will not enlarge the tear.
Cover sewing completely with SHOE GOO
Let cure for 24 hours..
Shoe Goo is in the shoe dept of Wal-Mart, can patch shoe soles withit..very tough and flexable. Great for other repairs as well
