"While in the middle of our house sale process, the inspector required some unexpected safety measures on our garage opener. After researching several companies,Rainier offered the best price & most personal attention. Ultimately, we didn't need to do this work. However, Rainier went through the whole process with me, explaining everything in detail. This is an honest company that looks out for the highest good of their customers.....regardless of whether we have a legal contract. This rare integrity of one's word is why we will use no other for anything to do with garage door servicing."

"Same day service on Martin Luther king day to replace two broken garage door springs. He had to work with two cars in the garage with little space since they were trapped within the garage. He was able to complete the work in about an hour. It was pricey for the new springs; far more than I had expected. Labor charge was what I had expected."

"I purchased my house in 2018, which was originally designed and built by Johnson Custom Builders. When I decided to add to my outdoor living area, I called him again and he exceeded my expectations with his design ideas, planning and execution. Since then, Ryan and his team have designed and built several other projects for me, custom laundry room with floating dividing barn doors, a custom den cabinet/bar floor to vaulted ceiling with rolling ladder including several custom enhancements to support my hobbies and use of spaces, repairs, painting, and even landscape design. No matter what the project, Ryan is always my first call. Ryan’s attention to detail, communication, and ability to manage every aspect of the job are exceptional. He keeps you updated throughout the process, welcomes feedback, and is always respectful, punctual, and professional. His crew works neatly and cleans up daily, which I really appreciate. The quality of the materials and craftsmanship is top-notch, from the design and engineering phase to the permitting phase, he has handled all the technical aspects of my projects—Ryan handles it all seamlessly. His subcontractors are equally skilled and reliable, and he keeps you informed of schedules or changes. Living alone, I especially appreciate his courtesy in texting or calling when someone is arriving. If you’re looking for a contractor who is dependable, communicative, and committed to delivering high-quality work on time, Ryan is the perfect choice. While you might find someone cheaper, I can confidently say Ryan’s work is worth every penny for peace of mind and exceptional results."

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.
