Adding a carport to your property is one of the quickest and most affordable ways to create shelter for a variety of uses. Carports offer great shelter from the rain or to offer shade on hot summer days, but carports can also perform well on snowy days. In this post, we’d like to talk about how carports work in the snow, and what design elements are important to consider when ordering a new carport.
Keeping up with basic maintenance is an important part of owning any building or piece of machinery. To get maximum value for your investment, you need to check off basic maintenance points on a periodic basis. Owning a carport is no different, and this article will outline some basic tips for staying ahead of your carport’s maintenance needs.
Two material options are likely to jump out right away when thinking about a new carport – metal and wood. These two are industry leaders and most people will just pick one of them to get going on their project. With that said, there is another possibility that some people will consider to serve as the roof of their carport, and that is canvas. So, is canvas a good choice for a carport? We’ll take a look at that topic in this article.

Having a large collection of tools is great, but only if you have somewhere to store them all. Without an organized storage space it can be difficult to find what you need. American Steel Carports, Inc. comes to the rescue with our selection custom steel tool sheds.
Our storage sheds are excellent options for creating your own custom tool shed. If you live in the New Mexico and Texas regions we offer vertical mini-storage sheds. With some careful planning, you’ll be able to organize your collection of tools like never before.
Adding a concrete slab to your property to serve as a foundation for your new carport is a great choice. Parking on a concrete slab rather than bare ground will be more consistent throughout the year and will make a better home for your vehicle. Also, if you are going to use your carport for more than just parking, that slab will make the space more versatile. If you’ve never had a concrete foundation poured, this guide will walk you through the process.
