"I would highly recommend MR Garage Door! They contacted me right after I submitted the job & gave me a quote without trying to upsell. I was able to get them out when I wanted to have the garage springs repair done. They did a free tune up & realignment of my garage door. They explained to me some upgrades that we could do to the operation of our garage door, but there was no pressure. I was very happy with the workmanship & customer service of MR Garage Doors!"

"Gilbert Garcia was our technician for this job. He was on time, courteous, personable, and highly professional. We needed a garage door opener release lock replaced and a new entry key lock or key pad. We discussed the situation with Gilbert and together we determined, because we are selling the home, that all we asked for was really not necessary. Gilbert could have taken the opportunity to sell us much more service than we needed but did the honest thing to inform us that it wasn’t all necessary. He just fixed what absolutely needed fixing and did it quickly and competently. I would highly recommend this company and Gilbert Garcia to anyone. Pam A."

"This HANDSOME young man quite a stud let me tell you. He came in and did the job the right way after countless other technicians came out and seemed to make my door operate worse? Adrian however was precise and was open to communication about what exactly he was doing I'll admit i got butterflies speaking to him the way he articulates himself and he's very polite may I add. HIGHLY recommend. đź’Żđź‘Ť"

"This company was one of the first to respond after putting out my request for work on HomeAdvisor. Wil is a very personable business man, his client relations staff is wonderful and they were able to begin work on the project in a reasonable amount of time from first point of contact. I loved the fact that Wilâ s company took on my smaller kitchen project, as most companies had a threshold amount of $4k and didnâ t want to be bothered. Wil has excellent contractors and walked through project with me upon completion. Heâ s got got my future business!"
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.Â
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.Â
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.
