There are many different carport options, catering to a range of needs and preferences. Here are some popular choices.

• Double Carports: As the name suggests, double carports can accommodate two vehicles. These are ideal for households with more than one vehicle or those who require additional storage space.
• Skillion Carports: Also known as flat-roof carports, Skillion carports are characterised by their slanted roof. Their modern, minimalist design is a favourite among homeowners seeking a contemporary look.
• Gable Carports: Gable carports feature a triangular or pitched roof, adding a touch of classic style to your property. They provide excellent protection for your vehicles, RV, boat, or caravan.

Before we provide a quote, we will discuss the different carport options that are available with you to ensure the final design is exactly what you want.

In selecting the right carport size, there are several things to consider, including:

• Vehicle dimensions should be considered to make sure that car doors can fully open and there is enough room for easy access.
• If you plan to store other equipment or work in the carport, additional space should be taken into account.
• Consider if you're planning on buying a new vehicle or upgrading your existing one.
• Property size, zoning laws, and your budget should also be taken into account.

We will discuss these with you to ensure that your new carport is the perfect size for all your needs.

When constructing a carport, a range of materials can be used, each offering distinct advantages. Metal, steel, aluminium, wood, polycarbonate, plastic, vinyl, and fabric are the most prevalent and each has their benefits.

• Steel is strong and sturdy, making it suitable for areas with tough climates.
• Aluminium is lightweight and rust-resistant, whereas wood provides a natural, attractive look that can be modified to suit.
• Polycarbonate and plastic are used for the roofing of carports and are light-weight, can permit light to pass through, and can withstand weather conditions.
• Vinyl is long-lasting and low maintenance and is also resistant to rot and pests.
• Finally, fabric is a practical option for temporary carports as it is simple to assemble and disassemble, although it does not offer the same protection as more permanent materials.

Each material has its pros and cons. Depending on your requirements and budget, we will discuss the best option with you.

Small carports might be considered 'exempt development', which means they don't need a planning or building permit if specific criteria are met.

If the carport does not fit within the criteria of exempt development, it will be categorised as 'complying development' or a development application (DA) will be required.

Complying development is a fast-track approval process for simple residential, commercial, and industrial development.

If the carport does not meet either exempt or complying development, a DA will be essential.

Many customers are curious about the construction and approval process, but rest assured, with our experienced team of carport installers, we will guide you through obtaining the necessary permit to ensure everything is legally compliant.
