"They did an excellent job. They also let me know that the garage door motor would probably need to be replaced in the next couple years. They gave me options and were not pushy at all. It has been about a year and I will be contacting them in regards to replacing motor system and possibly the door."

"I had another company come out who told me I needed an entire new garage door and new springs for a total cost of $1300. When I called Pacific Garage & Doors and spoke to Liz, she gave me some very simple suggestions on what the problem might be. I followed what she said and was able to fix the problem myself. I appreciate this company's helpfulness and honesty and they will be the ones I call when I do actually need some work done on my garage door."

"First time customer, called in earlier this morning to have a problem fixed with our garage spring. Not knowing the first thing on what to do myself, I reached out online and that's how I found this company. They were fast to come out and fix the problem The price paid, was very reasonable seeing the problem was rather complicated. Hopefully I don't need them again, but I am happy with how things went and would call them again if a problem arises in the future. Highly recommend these guys"

"Great experience hiring imperial Garage Doors to replace my 20 year old garage door and motor. They were fair with pricing, showed up on time, and provided great customer service. The installer was also very nice and wore a mask during installation and took the time to explain how to use my new smart garage door. Would highly recommend for your next project."

"I contacted several companies to repair or replace my garage door. Yuri was the last one I reached out to, and he arrived in less than two hours. He was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Yuri told me he could fix the garage with a one-year warranty. He also replaced all the rollers and the spring at a very reasonable price. My garage is working perfectly again. I usually don't leave reviews because I don't have the time, but this time Yuri deserved a great one, so I took my time to write it. Excellent job, Yuri."

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.
