"This company is GREAT! His work is professional. He answered all my questions. He wasn't rushed, didn't cut any corners. Fixed a structural issue from my last door install. Programmed all the remotes, and left the garage clean. I will always get Andrew to do any future work for me...Also his prices were reasonable."

"Sergio and his team performance was excellent and they are very honest of what is needed to fix my garage door. They provided me details on how to fix garage door without the sales talk like the other companies came. Their quoted me why too high and other technician stating needs to replace some parts which D&S said, your garage just got derailed nothing much broken except 1 rail needs to be straight up."

"We loved nearly everything about these people. They did excellent work and the transformation of our garage into a family room was remarkable. The one frustration was that we often did know when they would be coming to work. We understand this is something most people face with contractors, but it was a bit frustrating. They were exceptional in every other way."

"He was here within the hour and solved the issue that morning. New garage door opener is working great!"
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.
