"Mr. McKnight just finished working with me. He reattached my sink to the underside of my kitchen counter, repaired a chair, fixed my glass front door and installed a rubber strip along the bottom of a closet door. Since he just finished the work I can't say how well-done it is for the long-term (However, I can't imagine my sink ever being an issue again and strongly doubt there will be problems with any of the other work he did) but I believe he did a great job and did everything right. He very kindly explained and showed me what he was doing. He was always prompt, sent a reminder message the night before each visit, paid close attention to detail and asked, along the way, if I was satisfied. I do foresee Mr. McKnight being my only handyman going forward."

"It was a great overall experience. JC came to our house and advised us as to what kind of door we wanted to get. We bought a vinyl french door kit from Lowe's. JC's price did not include the door itself, but he did go pick it up, install it completely, and he hauled away the old door, and cleaned up. It was a one-day job, and he was very professional and kind to my two young children, who wanted to be right in the middle of everything. I feel that he was very honest with me, and I felt comfortable with him in my home. There was a bit of trouble making the doors fit into the space correctly, but he handled all the issues without extra charge."

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.
