"I damaged my garage door frame and vinyl siding when I forgot to put my car into park and it rolled into the house. I am not handy and had no clue how to fix it, but Mateo made the whole experience quick and painless. Super-nice guy-- honest and pleasant to work with. The garage door works like new and they even replaced the siding. Highly recommend!"

"𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭! Garage Solutions just finished our garage floor Epoxy Coating application. They started on Monday with the grinding and filling in a few spots that needed attention on Monday. By the time they left, on Monday, the floor had its primer coat and flakes down. Today, Tuesday, they returned to apply the Epoxy clear coat and were done before lunch. The finished floor looks beautiful! We are glad Garage Solutions did the application and finished ahead of schedule."

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.
