"Eddie is the best. Our garage went from embarrassing to spectacular. And not only was the price reasonable Eddie came out and repaired a small area that was damaged during installation of new garage doors. He didnâ t charge a thing . Highly recommend."

After working for my father as a grunt worker then his contractors to learn the different trades I am seeing out on my own. My wife and I were married this last year and purchased a house built in 1887 that we’re making our own. I take pride in my work but take even more pride in helping others achieve their vision. Whether it be a luxury or a necessary!

"I had considered purchasing a door at a local home improvement store and changing it myself. But, after talking to Overhead Door and getting a quote from them, I decided it was foolish for me to tackle it myself! I have a better quality door than I would have bought and it was installed and the old door taken away. Everyone involved were very professional and I would highly recommend them for your next door purchase!"

"this is the second time we have had Legacy work on our home. Our home was built in 1992 and the windows and doors were not looking as good as we wanted. This time around we replaced 12 windows and two doors. Legacy also painted a fence for us and replaced some cedar that was bad"

"These guys are first-rate. I've worked with four of them now, including the company president Michael O'Brien, and they are each exceptional in quality, attention to detail, and courteous service. I had two sets of closet doors delivered to a store near one of their homes, and he picked up and delivered the doors both times for me. This is just one of several examples in which they worked in making things as easy as possible for me. The initial week-long visit and a second occasion when I hired them again meant huge leaps forward for my home, and I have come to trust that they will show up and get the job done. The Angie's List special was a steal; it was sobering to hire them for a single day and have a higher price. But MPO is worth it, especially as part of this last visit consisted of setting right work I'd had done by others before I found these guys: they are my answer to home repair and construction jobs!

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.
