"Danny did a fantastic job! He replaced our 37 year old and malfunctioning Stanley chain drive garage door openerâ s (3) with new belt drive LiftMaster openers. He also replaced all of the old plastic rollers with new nylon rollers with bearings. The result was three large heavy garage doors that were very noisy now operate smoothly and quietly. Because of the difference between the old chain drive and the new belt drive openerâ s size and shape there were some issues with fitting the new mechanism into the same space. Dannyâ s 19 years of experience, knowledge and the right equipment and tools allowed him to deal with a complex and difficult problem efficiently and quickly. He was timely, courteous and provided an excellent service at a fair price.we highly recommend Lake Washington Garage Door Service."

"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."

"Our garage door opener broke suddenly. We put out a request and Prime Garage Doors responded within minutes and gave us an estimate. We explored 2 other bids, but ended up choosing Prime Garage Doors. They were able to come out the same day and finished late afternoon. The new opener was so much quieter than the old and had a lot more features. A few weeks after, we accidentally reset the opener, and they came out and fixed very quickly! I'm very happy with our choice of Prime Garage Doors, because of price, the quickness of the install, as well as service in a timely manner."

"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."

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.
