"From start to finish it couldn’t of been more simple to get a new garage door. Ours was about 60 years old and garage not square! But they were able to put in the new door and it looks fantastic. The sales crew was very helpful and didn’t push for something that wasn’t needed or wanted. So easy to work with!!!! Was very simple process to order the door and make a small down payment. They came out and installed fairly quickly and the tech Dalton did a fantastic job. The owner David also came by to check on things afterwards. Everyone was so pleasant and knew their stuff.. I would use them agian if I needed another door or any repairs."

"Does quality work. He cleaned up and hauled off old garage door motor for a small fee. I was very impressed with him . He was supposed to do the job on Saturday morning. The part he ordered was delayed. He called me and apologized for the inconvenience and he came and installed the next morning, which was Sunday morning."

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.
