"Kris came an evaluated the problem and clearly explained why my garage opener wasn't working. After discussing replacement options, I decided to go with his suggestion -- he took care of the ordering and we scheduled date/time to remove/install the opener. Pricing was agreeable and installation went very well. Will call on Kris again, when needed."

"My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Alex, who installed and fully replaced our garage door, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Alex was incredibly professional, kind, and transparent. He took the time to review our project promptly and gave us a clear understanding of the process. The best part was that he was able to complete the full installation in just one week, while other places like Home Depot and Lowe’s told us it would take 6-8 weeks. His quote was also very competitive, and we felt confident in the work being done. The quality of service and attention to detail was excellent. We highly recommend Alex for anyone looking for garage door services. We couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience!"

"Precision Overhead Garage Door Service was very responsive on getting a technician to my home same day I called. I called at about 9:00 am, and Richard arrived at noon. I knew what the problem was, based on past experience. On the screw drive garage door opener, sometimes the teeth on the trolley part eventually wear down and are no longer able to lift the door open. I described the problem over the phone to Richard, and after inspecting the operation of the door, he assessed the problem was a weak/failing spring. He indicated the door felt very heavy to lift by hand with the opener trolley disengaged. He suggested replacing the 6 year old heavy duty spring, but I requested that he instead properly adjust the tension of the spring instead. Much less expensive alternative to swapping out an entire spring assembly. Giving generous mostly 'B' grades because of this, 'A' for responsiveness. Would have been higher if he had presented the adjustment option to me first, rather than me having to ask for it myself."

"Cris is very knowledgeable and professional. Thank you, Cris. The garage door stops squeaking noises and has been great so far. Thanks again."
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.
