"I contacted L & S for a non-emergency repair of our garage door. Blayne quickly returned my call for an appointment, arrived on time, trouble-shot the failure condition, completed the repair and performed some minor service in less than an hour. Blayne was professional, knowledgeable, and charged a fair price. I would not hesitate to call him again for any garage door service."

"Look no further, this is the company to hire for your garage door problems. Extremely professional, knowledge, and prompt. I was contacted and scheduled service immediately. Jeff is awesome. He took a look at my old door that we haven't used in years and said, "I can fix it" I thought for sure I needed a new motor. Prices were fair and no up-selling pressure. I was impressed with the fabulous job he did . Garage door problem? Call Portal Select."

"Isaias Morales from Elite Garage Door Services arrived within 10 minutes. Assessed the broken Torsion Spring, both Drums, and both cables. Replaced them all within 30 minutes and even stopped the noise by spraying lubricant on the other garage door. Isaias was friendly, easy to talk to, and above all professional in his work. If my other 2 garage doors ever have an issue, I'm definitely calling him first. Price was quite reasonable."

"Jaime was prompt, professional and provided several options to consider. I saved a substantial amount of money working with El Sol. It was not necessary to replace my garage door but modify the components and install new rollers and a Lift Master wall mounted opener. The door opens and closes with a minimal amount of noise. I would highly recommend this company."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Fountain Valley, CA

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.
