Richmond Carports Built to Handle Hurricane Wind and Heavy Rain
Richmond is a town of about 11,500 people in Fort Bend County, about 200 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.
Each carport is made to your size. Pick a single, double or RV width, set the leg height, and add enclosed sides or a gable end if you want more cover. We recommend a vertical roof here because it sheds water and debris best and has the strongest wind rating. We can anchor to a concrete slab, or install on level ground with auger anchors if you don’t have a pad yet.
Check with the City of Richmond about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews install throughout Richmond and nearby Rosenberg, Sugar Land, Fulshear and Meadows Place. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
