"I was pleased with the way the representative talked with me on the phone when I called and even more happier when they were able to come the next day and repaired my garage door within a few hours. The young man Trevor was courteous, focused, and professional. The price was affordable to me and that made me even more satisfied"

"I logged into Angie's list in search of a company that could immediately repair my garage door. Within 10 minutes or so I received my first call from Cameron at Doorcraft. He impressed me with his honesty, his thoroughness and his eagerness to help me out and get the job done. I was further impressed because he never tried to sell me something I didn't need or want. Cameron arrived on time, fixed the problem and serviced my garage door as requested. I have used Angie's list for plenty of jobs in the past. They always provide an excellent service, but these guys are the best of the best. Anything to do with garage doors, openers or related, give them a try. Cameron / DoorCraft Garage Doors will not disappoint you!"

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.
