"I can't say enough about Alex with Five Star Garage Doors! He was prompt, professional, thorough, trustworthy, and his price was very reasonable. Alex took time to explain exactly what he found was creating the problem with my garage door, how the door, hinges, springs, sensors, etc. should work, and exactly how he could fix my issue. If you're looking for someone you can trust, don't hesitate to give him a call. I would highly recommend Alex and Five Star Garage Doors for any garage door service you might need."

"Elevated Garage Solutions did a great job in repairing my garage door. Steven, who did the repair was awesome. Very professional, explained each task needed and showed me that my garage door unit was only put in manual mode when I thought it was broken. It immediately started working again after taking it out of manual mode. Love his personality! Jordan was awesome in coordinating this fix for me! I would recommend these guys if you need an honest opinion and a superb job done! Excellent work!"

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.
