*The items listed below are examples of carports that can be built and their average cost. All carports are custom built and made to order.
Classical Roof Style
The Classical style steel carport comes with rolled corners, a horizontal panels on the roof, and is designed to be strong, durable, and cost-effective. If you are looking for a basic car or RV cover and don’t have snow in your region, this option is perfect.
Boxed-Eave Roof Style
Boxed eave roof carports give you the A-Frame look but the panels run horizontal, or front to back. This style gives you a more house-like appearance. *If you have heavy rain or snow, we recommend the vertical A-Frame roof style.
Vertical Style Roof Style
The vertical roof will also have a Ridge Cap to prevent water and debris from entering the building on the peak. Extra hat channels run across the roof for additional support.

*Prices On This Website Are Estimates And Subject To Change & May Not Factor in Local Taxes, Permit Costs, or Foundation Costs. Please fill out our form for an accurate and final total of your order.
Use the sizing guide below to determine the size you need for your carport. The leg height is considered the “clearance” height. You will have 1-2 feet in the peak. Please factor this in when placing an order for a carport.
Choosing Your Gauge Type For The Carport Frame
Standard 14-gauge tubing is 2.5″ x 2.5″ square, while 12-gauge is slightly smaller at 2.25″ x 2.25″. Despite the smaller outer dimensions, 12-gauge has thicker walls, which is where its strength comes from.
Every carport or steel building starts with the base-frame. Depending on your area, you may opt for the stronger gauge steel frame. The 12-gauge steel frame is our recommended choice for all carports or buildings, no matter the size.
The 14 gauge steel framing is more economical and comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty. This gauge is great for most regions. If you need additional strength, we recommend upgrading to 12 gauge framing.
