"Travis Hovis called me very shortly after I posted the job. I explained the problem, one of the Door springs broke and was laying on the garage floor. After asking several questions, he told me he had the parts on his truck and could come in about hour to fix the problem. I asked him if he could replace just the one broken and not the other. He explained why Not to do that, mainly safety. He replaced everything, both springs, cables,pulleys,eye bolts,S hooks. Took his time the adjust both sides so that it worked smoothly and evenly. He was done in about 1 1/2 hours. To show how committed he is to his work, he showed me that the set of springs, white 110 lbs, where Not the same. The factory made an error and sent one 110 lbs and one 120 lbs. He apologized for the inconvenience. Said he had to get a new correct set tomorrow morning first thing and would return around 10:00 am. He text me when he was 1/2 hour out. Took about 15 minutes to install and adjust both sides."

"Overall pleased with the work Michael did for me. I needed a small front porch built so me and my kids would have a safe and comfortable space for entry to our home. They gave us a reasonable price and did an outstanding job. Listened to our needs and communicated very well throughout the project. Would hire again for any future projects."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Margaret, AL

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.
