"Good service, but VERY EXPENSIVE! I scheduled the service online to replace a broken spring on my 8yo dual garage door. Got an appointment right away for Mon (8a-10a). They confirmed the appointment via txt msg. On the day of the arrival, they sent a name & photo of the tech that was on his way to fix the garage door. Really nice and professional guy, Alex. He inspected the garage door, and gave me an estimate of $1245 to basically replace all removable parts (bearings, cables, springs, etc.) I decided not to move forward with it, and I was ready to pay mandatory $85 for his visit, but he revised the estimate to just replace the two springs along with center and end bearings for $869, which I thought was still high based on market research. I needed to get the door fixed due to upcoming travel, so I agreed to it. It took Alex 30 mins to complete the work. They accept checks and credit cards, but there is an additional 3% charge for credit cards! To give you an idea of total costs: I paid 2 x $345 for two springs: PDS 250x39 - 1-3/4" ID LHW SP Green Powder Coated High Cycle Torsion Spring; $37 for Center Bearing; and 2 x $71 for two End Bearing Plate 12 ga. Also, to replace 12 roller wheels on my single garage door (to reduce noise) the estimate was $245, but I didn't go for it. I would highly recommend getting a couple of quotes over the phone before having them come over, so you are not on the hook for $85 mandatory charge."

"We would highly recommend Darren and his team at Twin City Handyman. We moved in to a new home and wanted to finish the garage. They finished the walls and installed custom-built heavy duty shelving and storage in the garage. They also built shelves in our basement and did some other minor repairs. The worked quickly, efficiently, were one time, professional, left no mess. Excellent work and we would call Darren again any time we need a repair. They seem to be able to do most anything!

"It was a great experience working with this company. They provided a fair quote to replace a very old garage door! Levi was a professional and polite installer that cared about my preferences. He installed and cleaned the entire area within 4 hours. They provided warranty on the door and opener! I would recommend them for any repair or replacement work"

"Excellent service from start to finish! The technician arrived on time, quickly diagnosed the issue with my garage door, and explained everything clearly before starting the repair. The work was completed efficiently, the price was fair, and the garage door now works perfectly. The technician was friendly, professional, and left the area clean when the job was finished. I highly recommend Home Service Garage Door Company to anyone looking for honest, reliable, and high-quality garage door service. I would definitely use them again."
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.
