Carports
Carports are a cost-effective way to safely store your car or recreational vehicles. Our carports suit almost endless designs and home setups and are versatile enough to add a garage door or front security gate. A standard carport size is 6m x 3m for a single carport, and 6m x 6m for a double carport. For those with taller vehicles, our Narellan Home Improvement Centre carports can be tailor-made to even fit semi-trailers. Always bear in mind that most councils require carports to be built no more than 1.5m from the front most point of your home. We can build your carport using a range of different materials to give your home and an appealing frontage.
