"They were great. They replaced our garage door opener with a much quieter and wi-fi enabled garage door opener several years ago. I called them last minute when another garage door company failed to show for their install appt and Garage Door Doctor came out the same day to install my opener. They took the time to explain how to operate the new opener since I'm not very tech savvy. This was my 1st time using them and I plan to use them from now on."

"I had back into my garage door. All About Garage door came and explained my options. I opted for a repair instead of replacing panels. Closes great now and looks a lot better."

"Chris called me immediately after listing my project! My garage door had been hit and I had no way of closing it. Chris went out of his way to insure that at a minimum that my door would be closed. He didn't have any openings that day but found a way to send two techs my way that same day to secure my garage. The very next day Chris sent Jerrod and Dylan with the replacement panel to repair my garage door! Jerrod and Dylan were extremely helpful and professional! The panel was replaced in a little over a hour and works perfectly. Would 100% recommend Access Garage Doors to anyone looking for any type of work on their garage system!"

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.
