"Alpha Home Services was such a big help! I had a water leak incident that damaged the floor and ceiling of my home and Alpha Home Services was able to come quickly and open the ceiling and take out the dry wall. The first day they came they laid out all the plastic and closed off the damaged area and took out the dry wall to let air dry the foundation of the home. The next day they let it dry and came to check and spray to ensure there would be no mold. After they came again to install new dry wall and paint. They also were able to give me an estimate for all the damages and talk to my insurance company for the claim. I was able to get my claim and my home repaired in no time. Thank you again!"

RLD Builders, Inc., has been locally-owned and -operated for more than 20 years. We pride ourselves on quality work and excellent customer service. Call us today for your free estimate.
"I hired RLD Builders to construct a retaining wall that needed replaced before we could repave the driveway. RLD Builders came in with a competitive price and won the job. What was to take a few weeks turned into a three month ordeal. The county permit process caused hurdle after hurdle to get the permits but Rafe kept on the county and we finally got the permits and the job was completed to our satisfaction. We then put the house on the market for sale and had moved to our new out-of-the-area location. The hot water tank in the basement decided to let loose causing major damage to the basement. This is where RLD Builders exceeded our expectations. Rafe and his crew jumped in and cleaned up the water damage, worked with the insurance agents to get approvals, and completely rebuilt our basement. Being that we were no longer in the area, it was a blessing to have RLD Builders on the job to take care of all the details. We couldn't have done it without them. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE ! ! !"

"I signed a contract for work to be completed in 4 weeks. 4 Months later, work was finally (mostly) done - but only with extreme nagging on my part and excessive excuses and push back. The contractor only came to the project site if his sub-contractors created an issue (which was often). They dropped my A/C unit down a 10 foot hole, they didn't finish half the projects they said they would and completed the other half incorrectly based on hand drawings and gestures because neither the contractor or I could speak the same language as the sub-contractors, they made promises to show up and never did. Worst of all, they used design plans from a previous contractor that were approved by the city - but didn't use those plans and never updated the plans. The city inspector came and did not pass the project due to this discrepancy, but Vladimir told me it had passed. The city told me the permit expired. So - now Vladimir won't answer my emails and I have to pay someone else to fix it all."

"I wish we could rate Yovani and his team 10 stars. We contacted him to help us prep our home for sale. We originally requested quotes just for drywall, paint and carpet; but as we worked with the team, and found other small projects, we were SO incredibly thankful they were capable of supporting all of the finishing touches. Every step of the way, they were responsive and professional, they kept to the schedule we needed for listing our home, and worked with us to stay in budget. These guys do everything, and take pride in their work with attention to detail. When all was said and done, they did drywall repair, paint, new carpet, new LVT, fresh caulking in bathrooms, an INCREDIBLE job with some external trim that had been plaguing us (a complex bay window obstructed by decking), and hung a new foyer light (2 level, with scaffolding). They always protected surfaces before working and cleaned after their work. Yovani kept in communication throughout the project, always kept to his word, and delivered on a dozen key items. I canâ t say enough nice things. We look forward to recommending them to anyone who needs house prep or handyman work."

Many municipalities require building permits for carport-to-garage conversions, costing between $1,200 and $2,000. These permits help ensure your project complies with local building codes and safety standards. If you hire a contractor, they often handle the permit application process. Check with your local building department early in your planning phase to understand specific requirements in your area.
Converting a carport to a garage provides practical benefits like weather protection, enhanced security, and additional storage, but may not significantly increase your home's market value relative to the construction expense. The value added depends largely on your local real estate market, neighborhood standards, and the quality of the conversion. While buyers often prefer enclosed garages to carports, the conversion cost may not be fully reflected in your home's selling price.
The timeline for converting a carport into a garage varies based on project complexity, material availability, and contractor scheduling. Factors that may extend the project include concrete foundation repairs, custom features, electrical work, and permit approval processes. Weather conditions can also impact construction schedules, particularly for projects involving concrete work or exterior finishing.
While some homeowners with construction experience may handle certain aspects of a carport conversion themselves, most should engage professionals for critical structural, electrical, and mechanical elements. DIY approaches might reduce expenses, as labor represents 60% of total project costs. However, proper structural framing, electrical installation, and garage door systems require specialized knowledge to ensure safety and code compliance.
