I was able to compare 5 carport installation quotes, all from companies in my area, and was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable pricing. My experience was excellent and I can only recommend Mr Botha and his crew to all future users.

I'm very glad to have found your website, you made my life so much easier :) The carport quotes that I got from your pros were about 50% lower than the ones I found myself. Plus the project was finished even before the arranged date and looks great! Keep up the good work!

Things you should take into account before deciding on the size of the carport are: the number od vehicles you will park under the carport, the type of vehicle(s), the height of your vehicle(s), intended use of the carport (if you want to have extra storage space), if you are planning to buy anopther/a different vehicle.
The area of installation must be clear, firm and flat. Some companies can do site preparation for you, others offer installation only. Check with the chosen company before conducting the contract.
According to the SANS regulations you do not need plans but you should still check with your local council because you might need to get approval from them.
The lifespan of the carport depends on the quality of the carport and the materials it is made of, but no carport on the market should last less than 10 years.
We live in Melville with tandem parking between the house and boundary wall. The width of the area is 2.6m, just enough to squeeze a car in. We can fit 2 cars back to back. We would like a quote on a wood slate carport roof to be created between the house wall and boundary wall to shade and cover the 2.6 wide space where the cars park. If the wood slats can be covered that would be idea. Thank you!

There was a company that erected carports at complexes and charged the complex a rental fee on a monthly basis. Not sure if you offer a similar service? Perhaps you know of a company? Price per carport +- 40 units ? The carports belong to the company and are not the property of the complex. A suggestion I would like to make to the Body Corporate
