Creative Carport Designs for Your Home

As the name suggests, a carport is a haven that protects the car from the elements, and they are a popular and low-cost alternative to building a garage. Carports can be designed to enhance the aesthetic appeal of a property whilst providing convenient cover for all types of weather. If you're considering a carport, look no further! Our carport designs are extremely flexible and can be erected in any sized yard, adding value to your home while providing protection for your vehicle.

At Fair Dinkum, we offer a wide range of fantastic carport designs. One of our most popular is the flat roof carport. It is a lightweight, versatile structure that is suitable for both private and commercial properties. Our gabled varieties allow a homeowner the opportunity to imprint some of their personality on the home. The gabled roof is a perfect match for more traditional styles of architecture. We also provide carports that combine elements of both designs. Our expert team members look forward to assisting home renovators to personalise a design for their home.

We take pride in the fact that our carport designs can be easily customised. The steel frame is much lighter in comparison to other building materials, so it does not involve complicated constructions such as extensive foundation requirements. The attached carports do not hinder the structural integrity of other buildings either. Our carports can be modified to allow alterations to the placement of leg supports and even include balustrades and other features to help personalise the exterior embellishments of the structure.

Carports attached to the side of a home are a popular choice. Attached carports allow for the parking of vehicles closer to the entrance way of the home, which can be of real benefit when trying to ferry small children or groceries into the house during inclement weather. Attached carports are a great option for houses that do not have a lot of space as they can be erected over the driveway and still allow access to the backyard.

Carports can also be attached to the side of the garage or a shed. Our designs have proven popular for housing the caravan or boat. Growing families with teenagers have found the addition of a carport has provided more space for the extra vehicles in the driveway! Carports can be attached to the sides of sheds to store firewood or hay or to provide storage for horse floats and trailers.

Our freestanding carports provide more options. The flat roof carport tends to appeal to customers looking for a slim-line, unobtrusive structure to shield the car. Customers with a green thumb would be pleased to note that our carports can be made to resemble arbours. Latticework and other embellishments can be added to create a stunning effect.

Combined with gabled features, the carport can add a real touch of sophistication to any home. Contact us today to learn more or to place an order!
