"Every so often you find a residential service professional that has it all together. The folks at Mass Garage Doors proved that to me this morning. I scheduled an appointment to repair & service my double door garage opening system. It was in various stages of becoming inoperable. In scheduling the service appointment, I had warned them that various components of the system might need to be replaced. Ronen Sisso arrived on time, assessed the issues, and, in record time, he fixed the internal control pad, reprogrammed the units to work with the external key pad, the remote control fob, and my auto opening system. He also lubricated all the key mechanical components resulting in a more efficient and quite opening and closing of the doors. In going over the work that he did, he advised me that parts replacement on this 16 year old system was not warranted thus saving a significant amount of money. Without qualification, I recommend Mass Garage Doors based on their expertise, professionalism and quite reasonable costs. If I have any future issues with my door system I will not hesitate to obtain their service again. Dave O'Brien Boston"

Customers say: Quick response
"The owner of Master Garage was very prompt in contacting me about the job, coming out for the estimate, and following through on doing the job. I was very pleased with the assistance I received on which option was best for what I was trying to accomplish (polyurthane vs epoxy finish), but wish that there had been some color samples to look at to help make a final decision. Overall, I am very satisfied with the process and the job. I chose polyurthane to finish a basement floor and was especially pleased with the repairs made to major cracks present in the floor before the finish was applied. I was a bit surprised that the owner never followed up after the job was done to see for himself how it turned out, but maybe he only does that if the customer calls about any issues or complaints."

"I had a broken spring which prevented the garage door from operating. The team replaced the springs quickly, without me even having to move the car! All the work was explained to me, as well as future maintenance clarified. Both the specialists were courteous, professional, and masked! Would absolutely hire again and recommend."

"Our garage door motor fell from the ceiling of the garage, blocking access and disconnected the power. Guys from Braintree Garage Door figured out how to gain access, re-install the motor with a strong bracket to prevent future problems, lubricated wheels on the track, and ensured all mechanisms worked fine. Our door system is old but still serviceable, said the Pro!"

"Joe was great, explained what he was going to be installing gave me a few recommendations and quoted me on three different options. Upon setting appt he arrived promptly, Explained how the garage door opener worked and gave me a quick tutorial. He even came by a few days later to assist me with the door and opener, when one of my contractors goofed up and had me thinking there was an issue with the door. Overall I would definitely recommend This company for your garage door installation or garage opener needs."
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.
