Custom Design Carport Installations Pretoria

Custom design is required when your site or vehicle does not fit standard carport dimensions. Common situations include a carport for a motorhome or trailer that exceeds standard bay height, an L-shaped structure that covers both a vehicle bay and a garden area, a multi-bay commercial facility that must meet specific column spacing for forklift access, and properties in security estates where the HOA specifies a particular roofline pitch, material finish, or colour that differs from stock carport designs.

It is also the right path if you need technical drawings for municipality building plan submission, or if a previous installer told you the site was not buildable, unusual ground conditions, height restrictions, and non-rectangular plots are all problems we have solved before.

1. Free site assessment and brief, We visit, measure every relevant dimension, and record your functional and aesthetic requirements including HOA constraints.
2. Design and technical drawings, Our draughtsman produces dimensioned drawings. For HOA submission, these include elevation views, material specifications, and structural notes.
3. Firm written quote, Issued against the completed drawings so both parties agree exactly what is being built.
4. Fabrication, All steelwork fabricated at our Pretoria workshop. Non-standard components are made to measure, not adapted from stock sizes.
5. Foundation and installation, Foundation depth and footing size calculated specifically for the custom span, load, and soil conditions.
6. Final inspection and handover, Structure verified against drawings. 3-year workmanship warranty and as-built drawings supplied.

Custom carport pricing depends entirely on dimensions, materials, and site conditions, there is no useful bracket to quote without a site assessment. What we can confirm is that in-house fabrication keeps cost lower than sourcing custom steelwork from an external fabricator and then paying installation separately. You receive a single firm price covering design, fabrication, foundation work, and installation.

For reference, standard residential custom carports (non-standard dimension, same materials as stock) typically range from R15 000 – R35 000. Commercial multi-bay or mixed-material projects are quoted individually. All quotes are fixed, no revision once accepted.
