"Steve & Rick did a great job on our garage floor. We wanted to do it ourselves but couldn't get the oil and dirt stains out. So after searching the internet we found Steve's company. He came out and gave us an estimate which was more than we had planned to spend, but we weren't able to do it ourselves. He was very informative and explained the entire process. After some thought we decided to bite the bullet and go with Floor Guard. Steve invited us to stop by his home and look how his garage turned out with the flooring and cabinets. It was beautiful. Steve gave us an estimate as to when he would be able to come out and complete the job. About a week before he contacted us, and set up the date and time they would be here as well as emailing us with a preparation list for getting the garage ready for their arrival. They were on time and Rick completed the 1st process on Wednesday and Steve came on Thursday to finish things up. Without a doubt it look great. Family and friends that have seen it love how it looks. I am encouraged that they offer a 20 year guarantee for the floor and hope I wouldn?t need to use it. The only regret I have is the I didn't seal off the door from the house to the garage with a plastic sheet. That caused a little more clean up on our part than it would have had we put the plastic up.

"All-Star Contractors was a pleasure to work with on my garage project. Bill scheduled an assessment and was right on time, during which he provided a competitive estimate for the whole project. The garage included electric, cement, roofing, and custom shelves, all of which Bill and his team were able to provide. His team showed up on time every morning and got the work done on the agreed-upon timeline. Bill was easy to work with an accommodated several special requests and his team did a fantastic job on the project. I would hire him again for any construction or home improvement needs!"

"Andrew came out the same day to address an issue with our garage doors which were not flush with the frame of the door. As a result mice were getting into the garage. Andrew replaced the weather stripping around both doors and made a suggested alteration to the rails of the garage door allowing for a tighter seal around the doors. He also replaced the metal rollers with new silicone rollers ensuring the longevity of the moving parts. I was impressed with his responsiveness, coming out the same day, his punctuality, showing up at the exact time that he stated he would arrive, and his professionalism. He was also extremely knowledgeable and came up with a solution that would ensure a tight seal around both doors. There are no gaps and no light is coming through the seals. He was honest and his pricing was reasonable. I will definitely use Andrew for future maintenance of my garage doors."

Enclosing a carport essentially turns it into a garage. You’ll start by framing and finishing exterior walls, then add a garage door (averaging $1,200), windows, and wiring for lights or outlets.
Plan for site prep and, if needed, a thicker slab to handle the added weight. Once the walls are up, insulation, drywall, and exterior siding create a secure, weather-tight space that protects vehicles and gear year-round.
A well-built carport may not add a huge dollar figure to an appraisal, but it can boost buyer appeal. Covered parking protects vehicles and lawn equipment, sharpens curb appeal, and fills what might otherwise be an empty driveway space. If the carport matches your home’s style and stays in good repair, it can make the property more attractive and competitive when you decide to sell.
Most cities and counties require a building permit for a new carport. Fees range from $60 to $800, depending on local codes and the size of the structure. Getting the permit upfront ensures the carport meets zoning rules and HOA guidelines, protecting you from fines or expensive retrofits later. Check with your building department—or ask your contractor—before ordering materials or scheduling installation.
A poured concrete slab is the gold standard for carport foundations. Concrete delivers superior load-bearing strength, keeps posts level, and resists shifting in freeze-thaw conditions. While gravel, dirt, or permeable pavers cost less upfront, they can’t match concrete’s long-term stability, especially if you might convert the carport into a garage later. Investing in a slab now can save money and hassle down the road.
Pre-made kits start at $300 and bundle all the required parts—sometimes installation, too—making them the most budget-friendly option. Custom carports cost more ($12 to $40 per square foot plus labor) but let you match the design, size, and finishes to your home.
If price and quick setup top your list, go with a kit. If you have a tricky layout or want a seamless aesthetic, investing in a custom build is worth the premium.
