Are you apprehensive about leaving your car without a shed? Then, installing a carport, a semi-covered structure supported by steel, is a perfect addition to your property. You can install the carports with the roof of the house, as an extension of the garage, or as a separate structure to provide complete shade to the car.
With a carport in the patio area, your vehicles are now protected from adverse weather conditions. If you’re planning to install carports in Bristol, contact professional installers. Read on to learn more about the common carport designs.
What are the most common types of carports?
Flat roof carports
A flat-roof carport generally provides extra support since it covers a lot of space. It remains outwardly open and is a steadier option. The best thing about a flat-roof carport is that it can be easily cleaned and does not require a separate poll to support it. In diverse weather conditions, flat roofs are steadier than in other carports. They can withstand all types of weather conditions.
Skillion carports
Skillion roof-top carports are pitched roofs constructed using very few materials. Hence, a skillion carport is the best option if you want to construct a carport within your budget. It will serve its purpose and help you save money in the long run.
Dutch gable carports
This is a type of regular gable carport with an additional parapet. If you have a traditional building structure, you should use a Dutch gable option to match it. It is a robust form of carport that provides complete shade to the patio. You can keep your vehicles safely parked under it and arrange for a seat under it during the winter seasons.
