"Gilmer was great! He originally had difficulty getting the remote controls to work but he came back with a new motor opener and installed it. It was a belt drive which was so much quieter than our previous chain drive opener. He was able to program the remotes and the door works great! Gilmer also worked to set up the App on our phones to remotely open/ close the door. I told him he was very patient as that took some time. Overall I was very pleased working with Gilmer and would recommend to any family and or friends."

"From the beginning, I knew that Justin LeBlanc was knowledgeable and professional. He set up a time for an estimate at a time when I could be there, and he was neatly dressed and ready to take notes. After a good walk-through of the situation, he said he would get back to me in a day or two with an estimate based on the laundry list we had agreed on. He did, and I have to say that the estimate was reasonable and competitive. What impressed me was his professionalism, willingness to listen, and ability to respond to questions in a way that showed me he had been in the business a while and knew what he was doing (he eventually told me he had worked for his father's company for a number of years). I sent in my 50% deposit and got on the calendar to start work.
After one schedule delay day and one rain day, he and a teammate showed up bright and early and got right to work. They were neat and careful, and they didn't mind me asking questions along the way. They replaced all the wood trim around the windows, up the corners, and at the top of the front of the house, and their painter had all that painted by Day 2. However, also on Day 2 they discovered while taking trim down around the garage entrance that a load-bearing beam had sustained a good amount of termite damage. This required another estimate for a separate task (replacing that beam and rebuilding the entrance to the garage) that took place a week later when it fit into his schedule, but one that came with improvements to the garage entrance that oddly, the builder and/or previous owners didn't include (like insulation in the front-facing wall on either side of the garage entrance, and stripping around the garage door that keeps air from leaking through). He even installed a new outside light by the garage for me. He would have put the old one back up, but we agreed the one I picked out was much nicer. And it is!
When unexpected things like termite damage pop up, it's easy to understand how schedules can slip a day. It was nothing in my book compared to the expertly skilled service, communication, and humor Justin and his team brought to the job. I believe the worth of the improvement in my home's structure and appearance is greater than what I spent, and I have found a contractor I WILL bring back to my home for other projects. I've given his cards to a handful of people already, and a few neighbors have come by to comment on the work as well.
On a side note, as he was preparing the estimate for the unexpected garage work, Justin let me know that he finally got one of those credit card swipers for his smart phone. That was a relief to hear, as I was not financially prepared for that surprise. He swiped the card, I signed the screen, and a receipt showed up in my email inbox. Nice!
Thanks, guys! I hope to see you again soon for the next tasks on my list!

"They did a good job.  He was great.  They did a really spectacular job.  We put on a new addition and it's really tricky to get the garage door.  They had to custom fit it and they made it work great.  I'd give them straight A's.  They had very competitive pricing. "

"My garage door?s cable/spring broke. I called ABC garage door and they arranged for a technician, Danny Sligo, to make an assessment and have it fixed. He did an outstanding work, quickly and clean. He explained what he was going to do and completed the work in 30 minutes. Highly recommended."

"I used Andrew's Garage Door Repair.  The last time I used them it was not satisfactory.  They came in to look at the garage door and said he was going to replace the back motor.  That process took about 4 weeks.  They came out three times and the first two times were good.  The reason I signed up to Angie's List is because they give honest feedback.  He said he would be back in three days and he wasn't.  He did fix it finally.  I had to make a lot of phone calls and emails and reminders.  I didn't understand that, I mean, I paid him the money he was asking for.  So he came and he fixed it and it is working fine.  They were here April of 2016.  It cost $500."

"We bought an Angie's List package for a garage door tune up. The person who came recommended we change the spring as it was too weak for the door's weight. After we made the change, the door is MUCH quieter to operate and water does not seep in the garage under the door as it used to. We are very satisfied with the services that were performed"

"We are doing some renovations at our house and wanted better insulated garage doors and smoother, quieter lifters. We used Academy Door and could not be more pleased. The estimator that they sent to our house to write up a proposal was pleasant, professional and knowledgeable. The installation team was fantastic -- they did a terrific job and left the garages and our yard area spotless. The new doors are keeping the summer temperatures in our garage much better controlled and the new power lift mechanisms are smooth, quiet and have all of the features we wanted. Based on the work that they did for us, we recommend Academy Door without hestiation."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Anacostia, DC

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.
