Building a Carport versus a Garage

When it comes to choosing to build a new garage versus a quality carport, cost isn’t the only consideration. There are other factors that play an important part in this decision. There are multiple types, sizes, and even colors of carports for you to choose from. Everyone needs a place to keep their vehicles protected and safe while they are at home. If you don’t have a safe parking spot and are trying to decide whether a carport or a garage is the best option for you, then consider these options on why adding a carport versus adding a garage is more beneficial:

  • Cost. Building a carport will be extremely less in cost than adding a garage. Expect to pay anywhere from around $15,000 to $60,000 on up for a basic garage with concrete floor.
    Installation & time. A durable carport can easily be built over a weekend, versus many weeks or even months to complete a garage.
  • Ability to relocate. Once a garage is attached to your home, there is no moving it. A carport can be relocated if you decide to move out of your house.
  • Value of home. Adding a carport and a garage are actually both very beneficial to adding value to your home, so why not add the more cost effective solution of a carport?

Vehicles and other assets such as trucks, boats, motorcycles, and RV’s signify great investments that homeowners want to protect against harm from outside elements. Adding a carport is a very smart option because it can protect your assets, add extra storage space and add additional value to your home!

Metal Structures are Just Easier to Maintain

Sometimes we will ask our customers are Keens Buildings why they made the decision to switch to a steel building to house their possessions.  The answer we most commonly get is the fact that they are easier to maintain then other types of structures that may be made of wood for instance.  Have you ever owned a structure that was made from wood?  Did it eventually start to rot and suffer the effects of deterioration?  Those effects are natural in wood based products and come as a result of wear and tear.  There is literally nothing you can do about it.  A metal garage or carport will give you the piece of mind to know that you will not have to deal with that rotting or insect damage that wood structures are often known for.

When is the last time you have seen a steel or metal structure have some kind of mold or mildew issue?  Probably not too often and this is why we are seeing more and more people coming over to the side of metal structures.  People in the past balked at carports or other steel structures because the cost was high.  This is simply not the case anymore.  In fact we find we can almost best the price of our wood-based competitors almost every time.  A more durable product as a comparable if not cheaper price sounds like a no brainer to us.

Are you new to even the concept of a metal carport?  If so, then let us know and we will be able to educate in whatever aspect of the industry you are curious about.  At Keens Buildings this is what we do. We specialize in all things carports and metal structures and our goal is a 100% positive experience for you.

The Unique Design of RV Carports

At Keens Buildings did you know that we design carports for your camper or RV?  Some of us have bigger vehicles that simply cannot fit within the confines of a normal carport and for that reason we work with our buyers to tailor the dimensions of their carport to fit their specific  housing needs. In the past when we have gone over some preliminary steps to consider when designing your carport this is why we mention measuring the space out as one of the first things that shou d be done.  Not measuring in advance could lead to problems especially when dealing with a bigger vehicle like an RV.

While measuring you want to leave a couple extra inches both height and width wise just to be safe in order to allow proper clearance for your bigger vehicle.  Along with measuring the area that you would like to put the carport in on your property it is also vital that you cut back any branches that may have made its way near or in close proximity to the area where you want to build.  Ensure that all of this clearing has been done prior to any kind of install as it can really hamper the install process.

We are ready and waiting at Keens Buildings to walk you through your carport buying experience if you need us to do so.  At minimum we are here to answer any questions you may have about the structures we sell and any lingering thoughts or concerns you have about our installation process as well.  We ship to all lower 48 states from our different distribution centers around the country and have installers ready to come to your property and make you carport dreams a reality.
