Save Money Compared to Building a Full Garage
If you are reading this, you are probably considering some type of structural addition to your home. While a garage and a carport both have the basic same function, they do differ in a few ways. One of the major ones is the overall price. Adding either an attached or detached garage is a massive undertaking and will suck up a huge portion of your budget and your time. We’re talking in the tens of thousands to even hundreds of thousands of dollars, in worst case scenarios. That doesn’t include the time it takes to complete the project - what a hassle!
A Stratco carport on the other hand is much more affordable, yet still provides protection from the elements. The steel construction and creative engineering gives it extra strength, so there is no need to worry about quality. Of course, you miss out on walls and the additional storage space, but who needs those anyway?
Add Value to Your Home
Although you might wince at spending money on a carport, in the end, it might pay off when you sell your house. Adding a carport can increase the value of your home and up your selling price when the time comes. Buyers are always looking for that extra something that separates one house from another, and if your house is the only one on the block with any car protection, you might luck out. Stratco carports are great investments because they come in a variety of colours and designs to match your unique home.
Protect Your Vehicle
The main purpose of a carport, as the name implies, is to protect your car. It is one of your most important assets, so treat it as such. Melbourne rain and weather can be relentless at times, so make sure your car has somewhere safe to be. By being out of the sun, you’ll also protect it from fading and heat damage. The benefits just keep on coming! What’s more is that some insurance companies take into account where you park your vehicle, and they give preference to secure locations over street parking in some instances.
