Preparing to Install Your Carport

Before you install a carport you will want to prepare the area where it will be installed. You may need to obtain building permits in your area as well. You will need to decide whether you want the carport placed over a concrete slap or placed over the ground. You will want to make sure there is adequate clearance for installation and that trees and power lines are not too low.

Take Accurate Measurements for Your Carport

Once you have selected the place where you want your carport installed and prepared the area, you next step is to order your carport. You will want to make sure your measurements are accurate because once the unit is manufactured you will not be able to change the size.
