Carolina Carports
Home improvement projects are exciting and if you are contemplating the idea of adding a garage to your home, you should consider the alternative – a carport!
Metal carports in NC are becoming a popular staple among homeowners for a wide variety of reasons and you should take a look at all their benefits over a traditional garage. With that said, let’s review some of the reasons why you should get a carport instead of a garage.
One of the biggest advantages a carport has over a garage is the price. Homeowners will typically save much more money installing a carport compared to constructing a garage. For instance, you could get a carport (18x21x6) for $795 with the ability to customize the colors of the roof and frame to complement or match the exterior of your home. However, a standard single-car garage built by a contractor can range from $8,400 – $10,800 and the price goes up to $13,000 – $17,100 for a two-car structure according to CostHelper.
Another advantage a carport has over a garage is the amount of time it takes to install. The average carport can be installed in a matter of hours depending on the options you chose. That means once all the parts are delivered, the carport can be assembled that day and can be ready for us! But, when it comes to constructing a garage, it can take a few weeks because there are many steps involved with the process.
Did you know you can order a carport that’s enclosed? Metal carports can be enclosed with walls and even feature garage doors! That means you can still get all the benefits of a traditional garage but at a fraction of the price and it’ll be just as quick to install.
Are you ready to choose the economical and smart option?
