"My garage door spring broke. I made the mistake of calling Precision Garage door of Houston, who first quoted me $325 over the phone, but then quoted me $950 at my house. I declined service with them and called Garage Door Doctor. The tech suggested the identical repairs as Precision, but for $355. He completed the work in 45 minutes and even did a tune-up. It now operates better than when new. I am so happy I found an honest and knowledgable company to service my door. Thank you!"

"After quickly scheduling an appointment, he technician, Tommy, arrived spot on time the next day, assessed the required repairs, provided and honest and very fair estimate, began working immediately, and completely repaired my garage door both diligently and professionally. I felt Tommy went over and above to ensure all adjustments of the door were correct and now my garage door functions better and quieter than it ever has in the past 18 years. I would not hesitate to call on ProLift or recommend this franchise of the company to anyone."

"Could not be more pleased. We knew we needed to have something done to the garage door to eliminate it snagging while opening. They offered an inexpensive fix for the problem, but I opted for a new door system to replace one that was 25 yrs old. It was very reasonably priced and we now have a reliable garage door that we can control from our iphones. Huge technology upgrade! The troubleshooter and the installer were professional, personable, and efficient. I highly recommend this company."

"I had the garage spring on my garage door replaced soon after Hurricane Harvey. Even with all the other work going on they arrived when they said and had the springs replaced in no time. The service technician was very friendly and answered all my questions and showed me how to properly lubricate the springs, as well as the wheels and hinges. It was nice to have someone who knows their job come and provide me with a professional service. I highly recommend you give them a call if you have any garage door needs."

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.
