Of course, we’re available to answer you questions directly as well. Our building advisers are on hand to help you find the perfect car port, garage, or steel barn, and would be delighted to help. Get started by calling us at 877-707- or scheduling a time for a free consultation.

You should go ahead and choose your colors at this point too. Carport.com offers a variety of colors to make your walls, roof, and trim match your home or other surroundings for your new steel building.

You can change the color of your building’s roof, sides or ends, and trim metal at any time prior to the manufacturing stage of your building. Some colors may require an additional premium fee. Once your building enters into manufacturing, no changes can be made to the building without additional charges.

         Our buildings require a level surface to be installed on. We can install on just about any level surface: dirt, grass, gravel, concrete, or asphalt. We can hold your order until your site is ready and then we’ll show up and construct the building for you. Our installation crews are also able to level your site, for an additional fee.

With competitive price and timely delivery, Jiuyuan sincerely hope to be your supplier and partner.

We do recommend concrete, and that is what the most of our buildings are installed on. You’ll need to hire a local contractor pour a level concrete pad at the build site prior to the date scheduled with your building adviser.

All states except for Florida require that the concrete pad be the exact dimensions of your building’s frame(Florida law requires the pad to be .75 inches wider, but the same length).
Please contact your local planning and zoning office to find the requirements in your area. Each county has different requirements, and it is the customers responsibility to verify what type of footer is required and comply with all applicable laws and codes.
