If you need more covered parking spots on your property but don’t have the budget to build a garage, a carport could be a great solution. Carports are affordable to construct and typically require few or no permits. While a carport will keep your vehicle protected from the elements, it won’t provide much security since it’s not fully enclosed.

Carports can be either attached to the house or a freestanding structure. Ready-made carport kits are inexpensive and easy to install as a DIY project, but if you’re looking for something with more style, consider a custom carport design that complements your home’s architecture.

Whether you live in a cold or hot climate, a carport can make your life easier. Just think, you head out in the dead of winter and your car is covered in snow. Or perhaps you live in a tropical climate, and your car feels like 1,000 degrees in the middle of summer.

These carport ideas will help you create an outdoor space that will protect your car from the elements. No more snow piling up high on your vehicle. No more sun rays beating down and cooking your car and its interior.
