"I highly recommend Kris at Preferred Garage Doors! My 30-year old garage door was breaking, and I needed it repaired or replaced. I really appreciated how Kris told me about both options, and helped guide my decision. I had matching single garage doors, so I was worried that the new one wouldn't match (since the company was no longer in business.) Kris adapted the top panels so they match perfectly. Kris worked quickly and efficiently. He cleaned up before he left. I really appreciate his professionalism."

"We had a complex set of requirements to meet. These included functionality, structure, security, and aesthetics. In particular, we needed to replace an older gate that had been damaged by weather, police chases, and automobile accidents. This gate also adds structural support to a block wall. We needed the gate to fill the trapezoidal gap between the garage and wall and completely block the view into the yard without looking like equipment from a prison. Our vision was a strong welded steel frame with sheet metal to block the view and decorative straight and curved steel bars on the inside and outside. After we had prepared drawings of the structural and artistic concepts, and a detailed set of requirements, we searched Angie's List for a contractor that showed experience with similar designs. Interestingly, we didn't see any, but Pacific seemed to be well equipped to meet the challenge.
Pacific listened carefully to our requirements, and we gave them the concept package to think about. They stated that they had never designed a gate of this type and we told them to take their time to think about it. Pacific came back with a structural concept that was both close to what we had envisioned and something they would be comfortable with. They took one of artisitic designs which featured both straight and curved steel tubes and incorporated it into their structural design. After a couple of iterations, they produced a detailed quote that we agreed to.
We had attempted to provide them all of the details needed, but they apparently underestimated the work required to excavate the existing gate post. Feeling badly about this, we pitched in to help with extra tools and hands. The Pacific guys didn't complain, and the installation went smoothly after the excavation was complete. The finished product is really, really nice! We were really impressed with Pacific's ability at all stages of the project, and all of their people were just great to work with.

"First time customer, called in earlier this morning to have a problem fixed with our garage spring. Not knowing the first thing on what to do myself, I reached out online and that's how I found this company. They were fast to come out and fix the problem The price paid, was very reasonable seeing the problem was rather complicated. Hopefully I don't need them again, but I am happy with how things went and would call them again if a problem arises in the future. Highly recommend these guys"

"Ben was excellent. We hired Noel to replace our garages springs. He arrived exactly on time and called 30 minutes out to let me know he would. He had everything he needed and got the job done very quickly. He also cleaned up and did an inspection of all the other garage door parts before leaving. I couldn’t be happier with the work."

"URAL garage door service is the best! From start to finish, all promised was delivered. Communication throughout the process including timelines and arrival/completion times was excellent. Quality of installation and clean up of old doors was impeccable. Give Uri and Alex a chance when you are gathering your estimates. Their pricing was superior to the big guys, even Costco."

"Neighborly Garage Doors are the best in the business. Their customer service is personal and caring. I highly recommend them. They are professional, extremely knowledgeable and have great technicians to repair and install my garage door opener. Thanks Dani for all you do."
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.
