"I had an original garage door from 1960 which desperately needed to be replaced i called and made an appointment and Ryan came out on time explain to me the services that would be performed during this time I told him of a vehicle that cannot be moved and he assured me everything would be fine.We scheduled an installation date Ryan and Adam came right on time ( which to get anyone on time on cape cod is amazing in its self ) on a Saturday and went right to work and the project came out flawless and no damage to my vehicle. Ryan then took the time to answer all my questions after the installation and they both cleaned up the remains of the old door. If youâ re looking for any type of garage Door repair or installation look no further than mid Cape garage door excellent service excellent communication."

"Carlos and the team were great, he was a referral from a trusted contractor. We had a sizable project with carpentry, floors, installing and refinishing, exterior and interior painting. Carlos and the team came immediately and worked long and hard days to complete the project so we could get back into our home. They did a quality job and were very professional and courteous. I would not hesitate to hire them again or give them a glowing recommendation."

"We recently hired Konstantin and his team for the fourth time, and it was another five-star job. Time was of the essence, and his crew worked long, long days (with our enthusiastic approval) to get everything done as quickly and efficiently as possible. After sealing off the rest of the house, the KB guys emptied out a packed suite of rooms and then replaced dusty wall-to-wall carpeting there and on the stairs leading up them with beautiful red oak. They removed baseboards and doors, but it was still trickyâ "nosing" extended out along one wall above the stairs, and there two landings, plus a closet and several side rooms. They also custom-built a bookshelf into three walls of a previously awkward space. Ugly fluorescent lighting was replaced with simple LEDs, and the walls were repainted. Then they moved all of the furniture and 9 zillion books back in. The rest of the house remained clean and allergen-free, as promised. While the work certainly wasn't cheap, Konstantin discovered (and passed along) savings along the way, and discussed every decision in advance so there were no surprises. I'm sure we'll hire them again when it's time to update our bathrooms!"

"US ProPaint was punctual, showed up for the estimate on time and gave a fair estimate. They went above and beyond on the interior, even making an older built in and some tired doors come back to life! I will absolutely call them back when we decide to do the exterior of our house."

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.
