"I was very pleased with Sentry Access, from start to finish. I had the opener replaced. My older garage door (20+ years old) now operates and sounds like a new door. Richard, the technician who did the work, did an outstanding job on both the install and the "tune-up" of the door. I am 100% satisfied with the work from this company, and highly recommend them."

"Initially we thought we were just in need of an adjustment but the actual spring was falling apart and they replaced it on the spot. AngiesList coupon deal $75 for garage door tune up and an additional $350 for the replacement of the spring. Not happy about the additional cost BUT it was totally necessary. 5***** all the way around!"

"My garage door was blown out in recent storms in 23. I called three garage door companies. Haney responded the quickest and with the best price. The install was awesome than I thought. Because I replaced the door is an insulated garage door. This required raising the rails. Work was solid and I love my new door. Notemy phone is temporarily out of service.."

"My very old garage door opener couldn't close my very old garage door unless I held down the switch inside the garage until the door was all the way down. This, of course, meant I couldn't close the garage door with the remote in my car. I called Haney, and Freddie came to my house on the same day. After reviewing my options with him, including repairing the existing system, I decided to replace the old opener. Freddie installed a 1.25 hp Chamberlain garage opener, replaced the old rollers on the door with new, much quieter roller, and serviced the door. He also have me thorough instructions on how to maintain the garage door and the opening system in the future. The door now closes smoothly and much more quietly than before. The new opener included two remotes and an outdoor wall switch,so I can now open the door using a numerical code if I'm outside the house and don't want to use the remote in the car. I'm happy with the service and product I received and would recommend Haney Garage Door."

"My car was trapped in the garage and I had a meeting to get to so I needed my car out. They were able to get to me quickly. Also, they were able to get my garage door up and running surprisingly fast at a price much lower than I expected. They were so friendly and professional from start to finish."

"Door-Mart showed up to my residence timely, provided a reasonable estimate immediately ($100 less than my first estimate) and had everything on hand to repair my garage door. The technician was done within one hour. I would definitely recommend them."

"Jeff did an outstanding job on my garage door installation. He had it up and operating in just a short amount of time. Jeff was very patient and answered all my questions. He gave a very detailed explanation on the garage door openers as there was a door mount, keypad, and two remotes. I couldn't be happier with Next Door's performance and customer service."

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.
