"Once they called me we met for an estimate. I received a very thorough and detailed estimate the very next day. They were super profesional. They started the job just a couple of days after my down payment and showed up during the earlier part of their window and finished an entire job for a complete new door with a new system and finished just a few hours later. Everything came out beautiful and professional. I highly recommend Juliao Garage Doors."

"I had an appointment for a Garage Door tune-up with another local company in the AM hours who "bailed" on Me last minute so I searched "Angi" and found Florida Garage Door Company. Very Happy that I did. They were able to fill me into their PM time slot on My day off from work. Steve came by and was excellent. Great service, very professional, honest, and no upsell. He even gave Me pointers on things I didn't know about My unit. Very satisfied customer!! If you're in their service area, these are the people to call for your Garage Door needs. A new Customer for life!! Thanks Guys!!"

"Smitty, the owner, was on top of everything from the quote to the installation of the garage doors. I have used his company for many years for garage door servicing and now I used him to purchase and install new doors. He's not the cheapest service, but you get what you pay for. He and his company are very good."

"I would highly recommend Elite Garage. They responded to my inquiry quickly and fixed a garage door that wasn’t working well, and also installed a new 3rd car garage system for us. He worked very efficiently, was very professional and helpful and also programmed our new openers to be on the same one instead of two, as well as our cars. I also felt the prices were very fair. Would 100% re-hire for any needs or issues in the future!"
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.
