"The price was fair, the doors are good quality and were installed quickly and professionally. The most impressive part was the low pressure sales. Joe presented the options effectively but at no point did he try to sell us anything we did not need - like more expensive doors or new openers. Greatly recommend All Jersey Garage Doors."

"The garage door expert arrived on time. He was polite, courteous and professional. He inspected the garage door, springs, cables and hardware, and pointed out how the existing springs were insufficient causing the garage door opener to overwork and advised me on all necessary repairs. He replaced what was needed and recalibrated the garage door opener to adjust for the new springs. The garage door now works seamlessly and much quieter than before. Next year will have Precision install a new insulated steel door and will request the same technician."

"I would recommend 33rd to my family and friends; Guy who was the installer of my motorized door opener was excellent; he professionally installed the equipment, and explained everything step by step regarding the operation of the garage door opener; although Guy came late on both occasions, his personality made up for it."

"Super pleased with my experience. I needed an automatic garage door opener installed on a manual garage door. Max the electrician came the night before and put in an outlet near the ceiling for a very reasonable price. Cliff came on time the next afternoon and set to work. My garage is detached and old, and the door itself, although new, had been installed poorly. He fixed that and tightened the tension rod, and then began the installation process only to discover that a wood beam in the garage was so low it would be impossible to continue. He discussed the problem with me, and I decided I wanted to remove the beam. I was amazed that he immediately agreed to do it for me. Then he installed the opener and finally he spent a good deal of time helping me set up my phone so that I can open the door using an app. He asked me where I wanted the keypad mounted before installing that, which was great because I want my kids to be able to reach it so they can get bikes out. Both Max the electrician and Cliff the installer are extremely good at what they do and speaking with them I knew I could trust them to do it right. The work they did is excellent, and the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend this company."

"Roni arrived promptly, provided excellent advice, and worked efficiently throughout the entire job. He even made additional adjustments to my existing garage door to ensure the new opener functioned properly. The entire installation was completed within two hours of his arrival. His professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Roni for any garage door or opener installation and repair needs."

Customers say: Quick response
"Excellent craftsmanship and service. We needed a new frame for a new garage door, and service for the existing door for a freestanding 2 car garage. Jairo s estimate was already significantly Less than others, and he proposed exactly what was requested without any attempts to upsell to get more work. The work was completed very early and with no issues. I ve added them to my favorites for upcoming future work. Definitely worth it for basic or challenging garage door projects."

"Our concrete garage floor was in poor condition. Glenn and his crew came to the rescue. The process was smooth and clear from start to finish. The estimate was fair and reasonable. The work was complete within 4 days. The crew arrived one-time, got straight to work, and did what they needed to do. We love the finished product. The garage looks brand new! Hire these guys. You'll be glad you did."

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.
