  • What type of materials do you use?

  • Do you offer turnkey build-outs?

    No, we do not offer any ground or inside finish work. 

  • How do I anchor my building?

    Mobile Home Anchors (MHA) are 30 inches long and cork screwed into the dirt or gravel. They are installed on the inside of the building railing. These go every 10ft on a building.


    Asphalt Anchors are 30 inches long and are driven into the asphalt. They are specifically made for asphalt and are installed the same way as mobile home anchors. These go every 10ft on a building.


    Concrete Anchors are specific for use in concrete. We use 6 inch long, 1⁄4 inch diameter anchors, we suggest that the concrete is at least 3 inches wider and longer than the building to prevent any cracking or busting in the concrete. East Texas Carports assumes no liability for the damage done to the concrete during normal anchoring application. These go every 5ft on a building.


    Rebar Anchors are 3ft long straight rods for dirt or gravel. They are installed through the base rail into the ground. These are a temporary anchor with no wind warranty. These go every 10ft on a building.

  • How do I prepare the concrete?

    The concrete needs to be the exact dimensions of the building, for example if the building is an 18x21x9 the concrete would be an 18x20. The concrete should be 1’ shorter than the roof length. The concrete can be bigger than the building if that’s how the customer wants it, but it can not be smaller. It is recommended that the concrete be 3 inches wider and longer than the building to prevent any cracking or busting to happen during the anchoring process, but that is completely optional. East Texas Carports is not responsible for any damage done to the concrete during the anchoring process.

  • Can I add insulation to my building?

    Absolutely! We offer bubble reflective insulation. The pricing for insulation is broken down into the roof, sides and ends.

  • How much is a two-tone building?

    There is an additional charge for two-tone vertical paneled buildings. Email us for the latest price on our vertical two-tone price sheet.


    There is no additional charge for two-tone on horizontal panel buildings.

  • Can I add side drive-in doors?

    All roll up doors or frame-outs/cut-outs going on the side of the buildings

    will be charged an extra fee. Fee will vary depending on the size.

  • Can you do 45 degree cuts?

    Each 45 degree cut is an additional $75 each. 

  • Can I pickup my building?

    There is a 10% discount for any customer that wants to pick up their material at the manufacturing plant and install the building on their own. There is no warranty on self-installed buildings.

  • What about the contractor that installs my building?

    We have no control over problems with the contractor’s vehicles breaking down, illness in their crew, injuries sustained while working on a building, or the weather and/or traffic that impacts their time schedule. We try to stay in contact with the contractor throughout the day to better inform our customers of any delays in their schedule.


    If scheduling has to be changed due to these unexpected issues, we are not responsible for any days taken off from work and East Texas Carports cannot give discounts due to the customers being upset over scheduling days and times being changed.
