A heavy gust of wind has loosen one of the bolts holding the awning to the side of our coach.I am thinking of 2 ways to fix it. 1 Use a bigger bolt and 2. drive a wood plug into the existing hole and using the same screw.  This awning also will not roll up completely.  It stops rolling about 6" from the top.  How do I get it to roll tighter?

No matter how you do it - you must be sure the hole is completely sealed - otherwise-  water could find its way into the vacu- bonded wall, soak into the lauan board and cause the fiberglass to start separating - delaminating.
