Carports
Automobiles and RV's are serious investments
that need to be protected. An alternative to the protection
of a traditional garage is a unique and economical carport.
Carports protect your car from sun damage, hail damage,
and heat deterioration. They keep your automobile cool in
the summer and clean during seasons when leaves, dirt, snow
and rain can alter the finish.
Carports can be built within 1 to 2 days,
making it an easy means for protection against costly damages
made to your vehicles, boats and other RV's. They are much
less expensive to build then a garage and do not require
consent from the building department. Also, carports are
available in any configuration to fit the needs of any project.
Carports can be attached to your house,
your garage, or be free standing. They are typically made
from metal or wood. However, you also have the option of
constructing a carport that uses vinyl to protect against
sun, snow, hail, and rain.
Metal carports are extremely durable and
economical. They are available in many colors and sizes.
They can be constructed of steel, standard aluminum, and
alumawood aluminum (wood texture). The material used will
depend on the level of protection you are looking for. Wood
is generally more expensive than metal, but it also brings
the warm inviting appeal that many homeowners enjoy.
