"David did a great job on our rental property. He finished installing a door that did not fit properly. He then replaced our Garage Door and Security Door as well. We were happy with the quality of the work after he was done and he charged us a fair price (based upon research and comparisons) for the work done. David is also a great individual and easy to talk to / get along with."

"My home was built in 1930; I'm not sure when the separate garage was built, but clearly is older. The garage interior was not finished. Caldwell installed pegboard on two walls & sheetrock on the other two. A small window was eliminated which entailed matching the exterior lap board siding that is so common in East Sac older homes. The other remaining "window" which only had a funky screen was updated. A window was built with plexiglass so that I could close and latch it or leave it open for ventilation. The workers also constructed a new window screen that can be removed. The exterior siding patch was caulked and painted as well as the interior sheetrock.
William came out within a couple of days to give me a bid on my project. He had very helpful suggestions some of which I ended up using and, in the end, made for an improved finished product. William has some fabulously skilled workers on his crew (Jim, Steve, Will in particular). The entire job took 3.5 days to complete. The workers cleaned up each day and kept me apprised of what was done and what will come next. All the workers were on time, very personable and attentive to my concerns, answering any questions. At the end of the job all debris and extra materials were hauled away or left with me (if I wanted them). William stopped and checked the job progress making sure the construction was as we had agreed, At the job completion, he walked the project with me making sure I was satisfied. Everyone, including the office staff, are very professional.
I can highly recommend Caldwell Construction for any home project. I have already hired them for an additional job!"

"Technicians examined my garage door and diagnosed the problems with it. They completed repairs the same evening and I had a brand new motor assembly which is quiet and working perfectly since. They do nice work."
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.
