Ask for a recommendationWhat size carport do I need?+
Start with the widest vehicle, trailer, or equipment and add clearance for doors, mirrors, walkways, turning access, and future use. A single vehicle often starts around 12 to 18 feet wide; two vehicles commonly need 20 to 24 feet.
Which roof style should I choose?+
Standard is the value option for straightforward coverage. Horizontal A-frame adds a more residential roofline. Vertical is commonly considered for longer buildings, tree debris, snow, and stronger runoff performance.
Can a carport cover an RV, boat, or equipment?+
Yes, but height, width, turning access, mirrors, roof AC units, antennas, hitches, and loading clearance must be planned before pricing. Taller or longer uses often need a vertical roof and extra height.
Is delivery and installation included?+
Delivery and installation are included when the site is ready, level, clear, accessible, and suitable for the selected anchoring. Final conditions are confirmed during quoting.
Do I need a permit?+
Permit requirements depend on the structure, placement, foundation, and local jurisdiction. The customer coordinates permits and inspections; engineering pricing can be coordinated when required.
