"Brandon was on time clean, professional, well spoken. He diagnosed the problem quickly and accurately, repairs were accomplished quickly. As this was my garage I had "stuff" in his way (which I knew would be a problem), he informed me politely and professionally that the items would need to be moved, he even helped."

"We called this company after losing some shingles. We had another company who only was interested in filing an insurance claim. Since this was a 20Year old roof and the second layer as well we wanted an honest evaluation. We felt that Mark gave us a good inspection and a detailed estimate. He went the extra mile to get us an additional sample that was in the catalog before we made a decision. He explained the process so we knew what to expect. In spite of the rain they came out within two weeks. The crew started at 7 and finished after 5. They cleaned up and everything looked great when they were done. We are very satisfied with the quality and look of the roof. There was a slight hiccup when the shingles were delivered and placed so they blocked the garage. A call to Mark got that corrected quickly so we could move a car if needed. Overall a good experience."

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.
