It leaks when the awning is open? Or do you only notice the accumulation of water when you unroll the awning after it has been sitting for a while?

When my awning is extended and it's raining hard (I always slope it sideways for run-off) there is a slow leak through the stitching. It sort of seeps through and drips. I might try some seam sealer. It is also right below a joint in the gutter, which may need some caulking applied.

The seams / stitching leaked on our awnings.

I put VLP Leather and Vinyl Repair on all awning seams / stitching and it stopped the leaking. It worked great.

We have 2 awnings and I ended up using 2 tubs of the VLP.

You can get it on Amazon, or at Lowe's, Walmart, Home Depot etc.

Hope this helps.
Good luck.
