Repairing yourself not an option?

Repairing bunkers properly is a time consuming process. Quick fixes are available, but don't last long and usually make a mess of the bunkers.

The best method I have found is the following:

1) Clean repair area thoroughly. Best to use a solvent cleaner if the bunker is old and very dirty.
2) Key both surfaces with fine sand paper.
3) Apply a rubber-based glue (the stuff cobblers use to fix shoes is pretty good) to both surfaces, but keep them apart.
4) Allow glue to dry and then reactivate it with a heat gun being careful not to apply too much heat to the bunker itself.
5) Press both surfaces together firmly in a clamp and leave for 24 hours.

Obviously, if you've got a lot of repairs to do, this can take some time. And its still not fool proof - some repairs will hold for ages, others will annoy the hell out of you.

Give Wendy or Andy a shout. Wendy runs the Masters. I know Andy has repaired bunkers and may advise you on how he does it. Not sure if Andy gets on here but Wendy(Wendyism) could point you in the right direction

those bouncy castle hire companys may fix them, a company local to me does anyway

that way

I've made that mistake.
