There are many advantages a carport has over a garage:
- A carport can be built in 1 or 2 days
- The cost of a carport is a fraction of the cost of building a garage
- In general you do not need to apply for permission to construct a carport
- The passage of air currents dries off rain and damp instead of allowing it to cling overnight
The shadecloth/shade net fabric is of high quality and it’s waterproof. A carport comprises of a structural frame across which a shade cloth type of material or net is pulled to provide shade cover for a vehicle which is parked beneath it. The structural frame of the car shade/carport can vary greatly in terms of material, method of construction and design. Timber frame carports are suited to creating individual shade spaces for private and domestic use and can be designed to complement the existing design of the house.
