"It went great. We thought we needed a new garage door and motor, and were getting estimates from several companies. The first company gave us a very high estimate. Then Jason from Trinity came out. He told us that we didn't even need a new garage door, that it was in very good condition. He told us with some replacement parts it would be like new. He was very professional, reliable and knowledgeable. We didn't even bother getting another estimate because we could tell Jason knew what he was doing and gave us a very fair estimate for all the work that had to be done. He was able to come out within a few days, and did all the work perfectly. He came on spot with the estimate. We are very grateful that Jason was so honest and skilled. He saved us over $1000. I would highly recommend this company."

"Would like to take this time for a Big Thank You to Banko Overhead Doors, Inc. , for their great service and concern for my safety. Last night while opening my garage door I heard the loud sound. The garage door opener came lose from the ceiling (9 years old hanging by one screw). Immediately call Banko. They had their service technician “Anthony” here within an hour to repair and service the garage door opener. It was getting late and dark and was concern about my safety as the door could not close. In the future I will take time to service my door on time, Thank you again Anthony and Banko."

"Emmette our technician was great. He showed up right on time and went quickly to work. He removed old broken springs and installed brand new ones making sure the door works properly. Hes very professional, dressed nicely and clean. He had everything he needed and worked fast. I felt that his price was very good considering i had estimates from other companies that were more than twice what he charged me. There are a lot of unscrupulous people in the garage door repair business so i found. It’s nice to meet an honest person. Great communication with the office too."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Lakeland, FL

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.
