My Carport Build - Part 1

I'd always wish for a garage but sadly that is still not possible...yet. The next best thing is to install a carport. I finally got my carport built. The measurement came out to be 25-ft X 22-ft .

I do regret not extending the carport over the grass area. I was too focus on getting it build ASAP. Overall having a carport is very nice. Especially with the summer heat (Texas heat is no joke).

I will do a follow up video after I figured out how I want to install my #carport lights and relocating my Tesla outlet. I will also talk about the build quality and what you guys can watch out for if you are also considering getting a carport build for your house.

UPDATE:
Materials and labor you see in this video cost me $2300 for this carport built.

I got my materials from http://www.steelsurplusinc.com.

Since this video, I recently expanded the metal roof out another 3 feet toward the back by the grass area. I also added rain gutters to get it the way I originally wanted. Wish I would have done that from the start. I will be doing an update (Part 2) video to my carport after I add LED lights and relocate my Tesla charging outlet. I plan to add wood fence over the chainlink fence around the carport for more privacy and concrete that strip of grass you see in the video. Stay tuned for that.
