"All Day Garage Doors came out quickly to repair my garage door. I'm so glad I called them when I did .... the springs were so stretched in one place that they had nearly snapped! They were very courteous and worked very quickly. And, more importantly, they did wonderful work, replacing all of the rollers, springs, and safety cables. And, they even let me know that I didn't need to replace the garage door opener. The garage door works wonderfully now... even better than when I first had it installed !"

"DL was very helpful and answered my questions prior to the service. He discussed different garage doors openers that I had researched prior to our phone call. He provided details about the different ones and helped me choose the best for my project based on my budget. The day of the install, DL was very professional, courteous, and cleaned up the garage area when finished, prior to his leaving. The garage door opener works great! I would recommend them to anyone needing garage door service."

"Ronnie came as scheduled and was able to repair my old wooden two car garage door on the spot. He was expertly able to troubleshoot the problem, and unlike so many other companies, was able to repair the existing door. He was patient, reliable and reasonable. I would not hesitate to call him for any job!"
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.
