"We had our garage floor coated and the results exceeded our expectations! The crew did a full grind, epoxy base coat, full flake broadcast, and polyaspartic topcoat and the floor looks incredible. The team was professional, efficient, and clearly took pride in their work. Eddie stayed in contact throughout the entire process and made everything easy from start to finish. The garage looks completely transformed. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their garage floor."

"GS and Jose were incredible. They helped make sure my painting project was finished in a very fast and thorough manner while I dealt with my back injury. I was so impressed with the end result and plan to call them back in the Winter for my basement. Highly recommend Lake Michigan Painting."

"Jason did an amazing job. Our bathroom was in rough shape, and we brought Jason in to completely gut and redo it. It now looks like something that belongs in a spa. He started very close to his original timeline that was laid out. We didn't have weeks go by without any progress, workers were here almost every day. He was able to accommodate some late changes and additions without an issue. The two things that always said it were his dedication to quality, and that he was just as excited to see the finished product as we were."

"As a businessman, I raise the bar very high on timely responsive communication, quality of workmanship and professionalism. Kalamazoo Concrete Coatings, LLC. certainly, satisfied all three (3) aforementioned prerequitsites, start to finish. Alec and his team provided a very impressive epoxy floor in our two-car garage that was desperately in need of major amounts of TLC. Their vast amount of state-of-the-art equipment (with dust collectors) combined with craftmanship experience turned my embarrassing, pitted, dingy garage floor to shiny, charcoal black show piece with a low slip textured clear coat. I know you have options, but do yourself a big favor, save your frustration and time. Make your first call to Kalamazoo Concrete Coatings, LLC. (269)-808-1121. Tell them Steve Harp recommended you to call.... You will be glad you did, guaranteed!"

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.
