Quality Service
At Darwin Carports, we offer a full-range of services for carport designs and installations of all shapes and sizes. Our team can build you these two main types of carport designs:
Attached Carports
a cost-effective option as it only needs support on one side and the rest can be attached to your property’s structure. However, it must be durable and stable enough to support the carport. Also, it is a must to determine if the roof framing requires more support.
Freestanding Carports
a very flexible option considering the fact that it can be installed and placed just anywhere in your property. However, it is important to understand that the placement must be in accordance to the council regulations. This is especially true when it comes to following:
- The boundaries – which areas are you allowed to install it?
- The appearance of the home’s façade – are there any rules you need to comply to?
- The carport access – are there any council regulations you need to consider?
- The neighbour’s car access – will it be compromised or not?
