*Permits
It is the customer’s responsibility to obtain permits. Norcal Carports can assist the customer with free qualifying Generic plans or paid advanced plans and calculations depending on the size of the unit and the county. Generics are free of charge if the unit does not exceed 30’ W and 12’ Tall. Carport Specific plans come at an additional cost. The total cost is determined by the size of the unit along with any add-ons. Typically, any structure exceeding 120 sq. ft requires a permit. However, it’s advisable to verify permit requirements with your local building department to ensure compliance with any zoning or building regulations enforced by the county.
Free Generic Plans Up To 12′ Height
Our generic engineered plans cater to different building sizes and types, offering a cost-effective and time-efficient solution for customers needing an engineer-approved high-quality metal building. However, it is essential to verify the specific requirements in your area by reaching out to your local permitting office.
Advanced Plans and Calculations – Additional Cost
Specific engineered plans are custom structural plans that have been designed and approved by a certified engineer for a specific project. These plans take into account the project’s unique requirements, including the building’s size, design, intended use, and the specific environmental conditions of the location. These are an additional cost.

 Galvanized steel is a type of steel that has been coated with a layer of zinc to protect it from corrosion. The galvanization process involves dipping the steel into a molten bath of zinc, which creates a protective layer on the surface of the steel.
The zinc coating provides a barrier against moisture and other elements that can cause rust and corrosion. Galvanized steel is often used in outdoor applications where it will be exposed to the elements, such as fencing, roofing, and outdoor furniture.
Metal carports require very little maintenance. Periodic cleaning with water and mild soap is usually sufficient to keep them looking new. Additionally, because they’re made of high-quality steel, they are resistant to rust, pests, and rotting, unlike wood alternatives.
