Custom Metal Carports for Baton Rouge and East Baton Rouge Parish

Baton Rouge is a city of about 227,000 people in East Baton Rouge Parish, about 260 miles from our manufacturing plant in Kilgore, Texas. Tropical systems from the Gulf can bring hurricane-force wind and days of heavy rain. We build each carport from galvanized steel with Sherwin-Williams coated panels, so your cars, trucks and boats stay out of the weather.

Every carport is built to your measurements. Choose the width, length and leg height, then add side panels, gable ends or color-matched trim. A vertical roof sheds rain and debris fastest and carries the strongest wind rating, so it is the style we recommend here. Concrete gives the strongest hold, but level ground with auger anchors works well on many rural lots.

Check with the City of Baton Rouge about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews serve Baton Rouge and the surrounding communities of Port Allen, Shenandoah, Addis and Central. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
