"Repair took two attempts which was unfortunate but they returned a second time and fought through a muddy mess to get the job done. They stood behind their work 😀"

"Ryan and his dad, Terry, came by to talk with me about what I needed them to do for my painting project. While Terry explained what they do and how they perform their service, Ryan went all around the house and examined what was needed to be done. Then the two of them clearly explained the process to me and scheduled an estimate. Looking up photos from past projects they'd done, I decided to hire them. Man did I make a great decision. Ryan first meticulously prepared everything. He scraped and repaired and caulked stuff that I never would have known should be done. Then he primed and painted with such precision and detail that it made me just stare and marvel at how great my home looked. The best part, though, was the relationship that Ryan created with Kathy me. It felt like my best friend was painting my home. He is so friendly, and so professional, and so conscientious. I could not possibly be more pleased with the job Ryan did."

"Sears was able to fix our garage door spring within our next-day timeline - the technician had the job done in 30 minutes! The quote for replacing our spring was also less than the other vendors we talked to. I'll call Sears next time we have this problem!"

"This is a small sample of the great work Hayes Brothers did. This was a huge job. They replaced 30+ windows, 5 doors, siding, gutters, 3 garage doors, and openers. They did an amazing job. Their quality and professionalism is unmatched. 10/10 will hire again."

"He is a knowledgeable electrician. Problem is that there was an extra cost due to the new breaker box needing extra wire and the meter switch was broken during the installation process. He still has not come back to put the door on the box and there are NO labels for the breakers. I have messaged him several times and I have gotten no response. Of course I had already paid him. In my book, that is poor service."

"I looked on Angi's list. Michael Barta called to set up appointment to look at our house and give us a quote. He was able to send his crew to start power washing and paint prep the next day. His team of workers were very knowledgeable and wanted to make sure we were pleased with their work. They painted wooden window frames, wooden eaves, gutters, and downspouts. We would hire Barta Affordable Painting again without hesitation."

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.
