"This was my first experience hiring a contractor and Mr. Sturgess's was great to work with. He was able to meet with me outside of my work hours to go over my plans. His crew was on time, friendly, and answered any questions I had. Mr. Sturgess rates were very reasonable, and he and his team are very honest and easy to work. Since they have finished converting my carport to the screened sun room, I asked if they could go ahead and finish some other projects for me. I can't wait until all of my projects are done."

"Brian did a great job, he was pleasant and easy to work with; his wife who I spoke with on the phone was just as pleasant. They both answered any questions I had and seemed like they wanted me to be pleased from start to finish. I'll definitely be calling them back to change out my other fixtures. Anytime I need electrical work, I'll be calling them."

"I had been having issues with the compressor on my air conditioner tripping.  The AC folks had been out 2 times and couldn't really figure out the problem, so I started to wonder if it was an electrical problem.  As soon as Mark came out and I told him the problem, he immediately said it was not an electrical problem for certain.  I had him check things since he was already out and he did.  He was extremely nice, very willing to answer questions, and good at explaining things.  I felt very confident in his expertise and grateful that he didn't try to take advantage of me and charge me for a bunch of work I didn't need.  I will definitely call him for my future electrical needs!!

"Bo is very professional, very polite, and just an all-around great guy. He did a great job pressure washing my aluminum sided house, fixed a sagging gutter, removed some mildew from my deck, and was wonderful to work with. Will absolutely hire again!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

By careful planning and reinforcement to maintain structural integrity.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
