Hello,
I hope this is in the right place. Just a quick query to see if anyone has any experience of building a car port?
I have at my new property a small hardstanding which I am going to extend slightly and put a 5x x 5m car port up. I am having trouble finding information regarding DIY car ports.
What I would like to do is have the carport freestanding and not have any supporting legs in the middle to as to maximise the space availble under the roof.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? Is 5m too much of a span not to have any supports?
I have found one such carport on ebay but its £1400 for the kit.
I am planning to make this from wood, probably using metposts to secure tot he hardstanding.
Many thanks
Neil
