Custom carports — wood-framed with shingled roofs, steel-framed with standing-seam metal, or RV-height clear-span structures. Anchored to engineered footings, permitted, and tied into your driveway. Daily-driver shade or a full second bay where a garage addition won't fit.
Pricing varies by site. Final scope, materials, and access influence the all-in number — we'll quote your specific project after a quick conversation.
Custom carports built to the same structural standard as a covered patio — not the bolt-together steel kits you see on highway frontage. We frame in PT or KDAT lumber with shingle roofs, structural steel with standing-seam metal, or clear-span steel for RV-height bays where a side-loading garage door isn't an option. Posts land on Simpson post bases over piers sized to wind load and soil bearing. Roofs are pitched to shed water away from the house and existing driveway, with gutters and downspouts routed to daylight or tied into the storm system. Attached carports get the same flashing detail as a covered patio — ledger flashing, step-flashing, and proper WRB integration. Freestanding carports get full engineering for uplift, which is the real failure mode in Texas thunderstorms — a 600-square-foot roof with bad anchoring becomes a sail in an 80 mph gust. Heights are designed around your actual vehicles: 8-foot for standard cars, 10-foot for trucks with crossbars, 12–14 foot for RVs, campers, and boats on trailers. Daily-driver shade or a full second bay where a garage addition won't fit.
Carports take real uplift load — they're large, flat surfaces with wind catching them from underneath. We engineer for 115 mph IRC wind load minimum, with hold-down hardware on every post-to-footing connection (not just compression bases). Steel structures use welded moment connections at beam-to-post joints; wood structures use through-bolted knife plates or Simpson MSTC straps. Standing-seam metal is the right call on carports — concealed clips handle thermal expansion across a wide, hot roof without leaks. R-panel is acceptable on budget builds with proper closure foam at ridge and eave. Slope is 2:12 minimum on metal, 3:12 on shingle, always pitched away from the house. Gutters are oversized — 6-inch K-style or larger — because a flat-pitched carport roof dumps a lot of water in a short window.
We measure actual vehicles (with crossbars, antennas, RV AC units) and set clear height accordingly — 6 inches of clearance isn't enough for a real-world parking pad.
Stamped drawings for wind load and uplift. Setback verification against property lines, easements, and HOA covenants. Permit pulled with the AHJ.
Piers augered to bearing. Driveway extension or new pad poured if existing slab doesn't reach. Anchor bolts template-set for post bases.
Posts, beams, and rafters go up plumb and square with hurricane ties on every bearing. Roof deck or purlins, then finish roofing with proper drip edge.
Design, build, irrigation, and maintenance all run under one roof — no subbing out, no juggling vendors. You get one project manager from sketch through final walk-through.
Built for South-Central Texas — heavy clay, caliche, long dry summers, and flash rain. Our designs and installs are tuned to what survives and looks good locally.
No surprise line items. We size the work after a quick conversation or site visit and issue a written quote with materials and labor broken out so you can compare apples to apples.
Gutters sized to roof area route water away from the house and driveway. Soffit and fascia finish the structure. Final inspection closes the permit.
