"They did an excellent job. They were expensive, but you get what you pay for. The building inspector of the city said this was the best built garage he had ever inspected. I would highly recommend them and I would definitely hire them again."

"I called them at 7:00 pm and, to my surprise, they said that they could be at our home at 9:00 pm. My garage door cable had broken and the door could not be raised. They did an amazing fast job and by 10:00 the repair was done. Their price was extremely reasonable and I will definitely use them for all future garage door maintenance and repair projects. I also will be recommending them to everyone who I know!"

"David Adams and his crew remodeled our living room to convert the screened-in porch into inside living area, creating an additional approximate 135 sq ft. Their service included concrete work, an addition of a fireplace (forming, stonework and mantle), dealing with a load-bearing wall, electrical work, adding a window and exterior door, and matching the siding to the existing siding. While working for us, they also installed an entry door into our garage. Their professionalism is impeccable - family values and outstanding work ethic shine through. Trustworthy, no profanity, workers' attire is professional for the job (shirts stay on), great communication with home-owners, desire to please the customer, and craftsmanship. To top it off, at the end of each work day, they leave the work area tidied up. Everything is swept and trash is removed. Their office help is on-the-ball and will answer emails promptly. Highly recommend!"

"Hunter and his partner, Josh, came out to my house and gave me a written estimate for transitioning my gas log fireplace into a sleek, modern glass crystal one. Everything was explained what they would do and within a week the job was done and it looks great. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to have some young and personal professionals come out and do a fantastic job. They were also very easily accessible when I had any questions. Good help is hard to find so now that I know they do many other side jobs, I am already getting them lined up to do some more work. Can't go wrong with these guys and they are insured."

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.
