The number one reason for buying a carport or garage in Texas is weather. Weather conditions over such a large area vary considerably, but one thing is consistent: The summer is always hot. Having a nice shady spot to park improves conditions for your vehicle, and for you.

Heat

Have you ever opened your car door on a hot summer day to find it so hot that the heat waves took away your breath? Have you ever had burn marks on the back of your legs from sitting down in such a vehicle? Have you ever found your steering wheel so hot that it that it reminded you of touching the handle on an overheated iron skillet?

The reality is that the heat in such a vehicle is not good for you, or your car. It can be nauseating, and even dangerous in some cases, it is destroying the interior of your vehicle, and it is not necessary! You may be forced to park outdoors at your place of work, but you don’t have to do it at home.

Other weather conditions

In the northern and eastern portions of the state, weather conditions vary considerably, almost moment to moment. The day may start of clear and mild, to be followed by an afternoon of hail and damaging winds, and a night of torrential rains.

Golf ball sized hail can cause a lot of  damage to the fine finish on your vehicle, and having a place to keep it covered is your best insurance against increasing insurance rates.

The solution

A lot of people have garages built onto their homes, but in most cases they are not used for parking, they are used for storage. The answer is not to pack up all the things stored in the garage and haul them to a place that makes you pay rent. The answer is to buy a well built, but inexpensive carport. We can tell you how, and give you recommendations on the best places to buy carports at the most affordable prices!

How to Buy A Carport Or Garage in Texas (or anywhere else)

There are a lot of places in the world where protecting your vehicles and equipment from the weather are important, but probably none have a wider variety of damaging weather conditions than right hear in North Texas and East Texas, where our summertime temperatures regularly exceed the century mark, and hail and damaging wind are a moment to moment fact of life throughout the year.

This blog is mostly about storage buildings, that usually means portable utility buildings of the type that are built at a facility, and then shipped to you, where they are leveled and blocked up, and ready for use. They are not all used for storage, some are used for shops, or offices, or game rooms, or just about anything you can think of.

What about those times when you have something bigger to store, like a car, or a tractor, or a motor home? What if your problem isn’t storing something, but protecting something from the sun and the wind and the hail? Sometimes you might just need a building that’s a little larger than a standard size storage building. Maybe you need something like a place to park your boat. A carport, or a full scale garage might be just the thing to keep your vehicle from an extra trip or two to the body shop each year.

Steel buildings

Solid steel buildings like carports and garages can be manufactured very efficiently, and surprisingly inexpensively due to the advent of modern modular building systems. They can be cut and welded to the right size and shape before hand, based on your specific requirements, and then put together on your property in a very short time, for a very affordable price.

How to buy a carport or garage

It works something like this. You decide what width and length you want the building to be. Set down with your local dealer, and he will guide you through a process on paper. Essentially, you will be designing the building with the help of an individual who is trained to help you through.  With the basic information about the buildings size, you will be given a price for the basic carport like structure. Then, you decide whether that is suitable, or whether more might need to be added.

Accessories

There are:

• Leg extension

• Braces

• Gable ends

• Enclosed Sides

• Enclosed ends

• Roll up doors

• Walk in doors

• Windows

• Storm anchors

And even a few other things.

If you want longer legs on the building, they can be added for a small cost. If you want the sides completely enclosed, simply say so, and the cost of adding sides can be added in. If you want to add ends, to completely, or partially enclose the structure, the cost of those can be added in as well.

Of course, if you close all four walls, you will have to have a door to get into the structure. You will then choose the type and size of the door, or doors, add any windows you want, and at some point you will be asked about such things as extra bracing, storm anchors and other accessories. Just have them add what you want.

What you will have

In the end, you will have your customized, personalized building designed and ready to be built on your property. When you are asked about the ends of the buildings, don’t be too surprised at the cost. It costs more to enclose an end than a side, because the ends add extra framing that the sides already have. Most modern modular systems are built with steel. These will be galvanized steel rails, with galvanized steel sheeting which is given a very meticulous paint job and usually carries a “rust through” warranty for 20 years or more.
