It depends what kind of canopy it is, but Lowes or Home Depot sell many different types of anchors. Hold them down with Tapcons.

Suntan answers:

If you have the remainder of the canopy– use it for a pattern…… Don’t forget the length necessary to slide thru the framework. Handcocks has “outdoor” fabric–
Otherwise, get an old sheet or blanket– fit the size to the canopy and use that for measuring the amount of fabric needed.
If you need to seam the fabric to make the piece big enough– be sure and use a “flat-fell” seam. I’m sure you can google for how to do this. Or in a basic sewing book. It isn’t hard but it is particular in “how to”.
Good luck

The thing you’re talking about might better be bought locally, but here’s a site with really nice structures.

As you can see, you can buy things as kits if you aren’t in the same area as this company. Maybe they’d sell you plans and you could have it built locally.

This site:

has some handsome structures, but they appear to all be connected to the house. If your patio table is near the house, this might do.

Suntan answers:

This is part of the problem with outsourcing. The cost to manufacture overseas, ship to a U.S. Distributor, warehouse until ordered, then ship again to a retail store is just as high for replacement parts as for a whole new item — patio umbrellas are just one example. So replacement parts are simply not available because there is no benefit to repairing over replacing.

That’s OK though, we need more garbage in the landfills
