"My garage door was uneven, and Alamo Garage Doors fixed it quickly. The technician tested the door several times to make sure it was safe. I felt confident after the service."

"Excellent service! Technician came the same day I called. He repaired our broken spring promptly and lubricated both doors. I’ve noticed that sometimes it’s hard to get them on the phone, as I got the answering machine several times. That is my only small negative."

"Was very honest and diagnosed my sticky garage door issue perfectly. Turned out to be the weather seal around the sides and top that had degraded after many years in the sun and was sticking to the door. Replaced for an honest price and quickly done!"

"We bought our house in June of 2024 and hired Joe/All Phase to complete a full house restoration. The house was built in 1870. Each person that worked on our house over the course of 4 months was exceptionally professional. We received compliments from our new neighbors as the project progressed and about the team from All Phase that handled each phase of the project. Joe Stillman was quick to respond each time we reached out to make a modification or just check in. He was regularly on site to ensure expectations were met. We had walls removed, added insulation, a full house electrical rewire, dual zone HVAC install, walls removed, windows installed in walls that had no windows, sliding glass doors installed where there were no previous sliding glass doors, house fully drywalled and painted, all new woodwork, new roof, new siding and new downspouts. They also built a portico. I would highly recommend Joe and his entire team. We also had a garage built this year that I?ll review next."

"In the last 15 years at this location I have had garage door maintenance 3 times and I have found Monerey Shop to be the best and most reasonable. I called and they came first thing next morning. Problem was a broken gear in my double overhead garage door. They resolved that and I had them replace my outside remote control which required programming. They suggested they should check all the handsfree controls in all of my cars and did so and suggested future things I should look for in maintaining my 15 year old doors. I had them out a few years ago to replace a broken spring where the good service was the same. They work on a service fee plus hourly rate plus parts. They watch the clock to be sure to complete in the least amount of time their parts are reasonable (no large markup) and I have found them to be inexpensive when compared to other local companies. I will have them back for any additional maintenance I may need."

"This is the third time I have used The Driveway Lady, aka, Jean. I found Jean on Angie's List and used her because her reviews were so great. I also checked her out on her website, [*** Link removed ***] It's a very comprehensive website with lots of information including a video of when The Driveway Lady was on NBC 10 News with Lori Delgado. My experience with The Driveway Lady has always been fantastic. She is very responsive and does a great job. My driveway is lined with pavers on both sides, and The Driveway Lady never gets any material on the pavers. My wife and I have always been happy with her workmanship and her price. You owe it to yourself to get a bid from The Driveway Lady."

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.
