"Eric is a true professional; the estimate for our five new garage doors was on target and they were beautifully installed. The few times we have had to have him back for a slight tweak or repair (our fault, not product) he was on time and very reasonable. Would highly recommend this local business! Rene Douglas MA"

"Tomas and his coworker were awesome. What at first appeared to be a simple garage door opener installation turned out to be not-so-simple. They arrived right on time, and took me through what they were about to do with the install. They identified a couple of problems with the doors themselves and for a very reasonable price repaired that also. In addition, there was part needed for my installation that did not come with the garage door opener. They found the part closeby, went and picked it up and installed it perfectly. My doors now open quietly and smoothly. Will definitely recommend them again. THANK YOU!"

"Douglas Comiel (sp.?) installed a new garage door replacing our Replaced damaged door was timely, efficient, polite and checked to be sure everything I needed was done. He also replaced the garage door opener which I was sorely missing in the cold winter. The door looks great, matching the existing door, and works perfectly! I could not be more pleased with my experience!"

"I had an epoxy floor done on my garage and basement floors. The epoxy finish looks great! This was a great alternative to removing the old tile floor and replacing with new. There was a significant savings in time and money. I'm very happy with the results. This a great option for a finished basement floor."

"Installed garage doors and garage door opener. Would hire 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.
