"Crunched my garage door by leaving a stepladder under the open door ... close the garage door and crunch. It was late in the day and I knew my house would not be secure if I couldn’t close my garage door! Ace of spades came out within a hour and half and fix my garage door in less than hour. Excelente service and friendly and helpful service pro.... thanks Jim Womack"

"Robert was very responsive to all of my questions and messages and arrived timely to assess the job. He was very professional and courteous and I will be calling him with any future electrical needs. I would have never got this right if I had tried this on my own and would have cost more double in time and money. Highly recommended."

"Superior customer service. The workers were punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and cleaned up after themselves including removing the old door from the premises. The time between agreeing on the service and installation was short. I think I was impressed in part because of the comparison between this company and the other one we contacted which even after 3 calls never bnothered to respond. But this experience was everything we hoped for.

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.
