"Isaias Morales from Elite Garage Door Services arrived within 10 minutes. Assessed the broken Torsion Spring, both Drums, and both cables. Replaced them all within 30 minutes and even stopped the noise by spraying lubricant on the other garage door. Isaias was friendly, easy to talk to, and above all professional in his work. If my other 2 garage doors ever have an issue, I'm definitely calling him first. Price was quite reasonable."

"When our garage door quit working Jeff was able to spot a malfunction in the circuit board. After a minor adjustment everything worked fine and he did not charge us anything, even a trip charge. We highly recommend them!"

"Anthony called right back once I left a message. He was on site within a few hours. Asked me to take pictures of the garage door and springs to validate he had the parts in stock. Arrived at the targeting time, and did a great job replacing the springs on my roll up door. He also adjusted the height which I was having on issue with. DId a great job, very nice, knows his business and I would recommend Anthony to anyone who needs help with their garage door, springs, maintenance or needs adjustments."

"My mother has a great passion for gardening and also making the lawn beautifully decorated. She insisted on Stonework for the lawns, but I wasn't sure about it. At that time I came across an advertisement for Platinum Home Builders. The finishing they gave left my mother awestruck."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Surfside, CA

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.
