I can’t tell you how many times one of my customers has told me about a gorgeous carport they noticed along the road in their area and wanted to know how they might have one. For a business owner, satisfied customer recommendations are beneficial. While the significant reason for purchasing a carport is to shelter your vehicle from ice, snow, rain, and other debris, homeowners often require a visually appealing structure. A carport that matches the aesthetics and style of your home could add significant curb appeal and the value of your home. Your neighbors might also appreciate that you’re contributing to their house and neighborhood value.
Benefits of Steel and Wood
There are numerous advantages of having a tailor-built steel and wood carport instead of a prefabricated shelter. For one, you’ll be able to match the stain or paint color of your home and your carport. You could stain or paint posts, beams, and purlins to blend in with the style of your home. You may also pick an individual color, the powder coating of the braces, trusses, and post boots, which match the color of your home’s roof or the trim.
Make Your Carport Wood
With a steel and wood carport, you’ll be able to alter the height, width, and overall length. We generally recommend 6×6 wood posts that are 8 feet tall. However, you can elevate them at least 10 feet should you need to increase storage space and clearance. Additionally, you can add trusses that will extend to make your enclosure as far as you’d like.
Save Money by Buying Local
We provide bracers, steel trusses, post boots, fasteners, etc. You can purchase your lumber as well as roofing locally. It can save you shipping costs and allows you to alter the appearance/color of your wood posts, beams, and purlins. You could, for instance, you can blend the timber used for your siding for your home or in the rays to match your carport. Staining your carport using the same finish or color as your house creates your property’s attractive and coordinated appearance.
