One man outfit. I have experience from doing farmwork and repairs, to renovating homes, garages, and properties, up to constructing new buildings and performing General Contractor duties. I also have a sizeable collection of barnwood and some slabs to make tables and furniture out of. I enjoy working directly with the homeowner and taking the extra steps to ensure you are happy with the project when it’s finished!

Woodworking questions, answered by experts
While fabric and temporary carports last for just a few years, depending on the weather they must endure, well-maintained metal and wood carports can last between 10 and 30 years. In some cases, well-cared-for carports made of high-quality materials can last a lifetime. How long your carport will last depends mostly on its construction, materials, and maintenance.
There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.
Wood carports provide weather protection for vehicles, serve as multipurpose spaces, and add aesthetic and functional value to properties.
New builds, remodels, and additions often necessitate professional framing expertise.
The minimum recommended height for a carport is 7 feet tall, but you might need a significantly taller carport to provide clearance for RVs, commercial trucks, or other tall vehicles. You can choose your carport height based on the clearance you need and how the carport looks in comparison to the height of your home. Just keep in mind that building regulations usually dictate a maximum carport height.
