"Bryson was on time, courteous and professional. He assessed our request and executed the work. Our garage door was shaking and making creaking noises. Bryson replaced the rollers with upgraded high quality rollers. He oiled the spring and hinges. Bryson explained how the garage door functions and instructed us on regular maintenance that we can perform ourselves to extend the doors functions."

"Brian was very knowledgeable with helping me resolve my garage door issue. Whenever we bought this home, we have always had some sort of issue with our garage door. We knew eventually we were going to have to have work done to it.. Well, the day came where I went to open my garage door to get my child to school and my garage wouldnâ t open. No matter what I did. After looking through a few places, I saw Dependable Garage Doors. It stuck out to me because of the logo and I saw that it was veteran owned! I called right away and spoke with Brian. He came out so quick! He walked me through everything and showed me where my spring was broken. We talked about pricing (AMAZING PRICING!) and what he had to do to fix it and got to work. Within a few hours, everything was done and my garage opened and closed with ease! I was so grateful! Brian was kind and helped ease my frantic mind and got the job done so throughly! Grateful for this veteran owned business and would recommend them to anyone!"

"My garage project was very complicated, so only a very few companies on Angi could do the job. It involved converting two single-car garage doors into one, and removing a brick covered post between the two single-car garage doors. I am glad we hired Liberty Garage Door Services! The job took 3 days to complete, and the garage looks brand new (on our 3-yr old house)!"

"We had our garage door spring break on a Friday. American Home Shield couldn't get anyone to come out before the following week, so we inquired as to which Garage Door Companies would fix it as emergency, since my wife has medical conditions and needs to be able to travel. Of the two Garage Door Companies that are available 24 hours, A1 Garage Door Service LLC was the only one that could be there same evening. They got to our home to fix the broken spring so we could open the Garage around 8:00 pm."

"We had a spring break on our 12ft commercial garage door and called Garage Door Prime Repair to come replace it. While there, we were able to get a quote on a new commercial opener and decided to add that in as well. We couldn?t be happier with the quick and responsive service we received and the great price. Thank you Anthony for taking care of us. We?ve already recommended your company to others and hope to use you again should we need future services."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Athens, GA

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.
