Carport

A carport provides reliable protection for your vehicle while maintaining an open, unobtrusive structure that complements your home.

At By Design Outdoor Projects, we design and build custom steel carports for residential properties across NSW, tailored to suit your site, usage, and architectural style.

Whether you need cover for a single vehicle or a wider parking solution, our carports are built for durability, compliance, and clean design.

What Is a Carport?

A carport is an open-sided structure designed primarily for vehicle parking, offering protection from sun, rain, and weather exposure without the full enclosure of a garage.

Carports are a popular choice for homeowners who want:

  • • Vehicle protection
  • • Easy access and ventilation
  • • A cost-effective alternative to garages
  • • A structure that integrates with existing buildings

Carport Roof Styles Available

Skillion Carports

A modern, single-slope roof design ideal for contemporary homes and tight spaces.

Gable Carports

A classic pitched roof style that complements traditional architecture and provides increased height and airflow.

Flyover Carports

Raised roof designs that sit above the existing roofline, allowing heat to escape and creating a more open feel.

Each style is custom designed to suit your property and council requirements.

Roofing Options

Your carport can be finished with a variety of roofing systems, including:

  • • Insulated roofing – Improved thermal performance and noise reduction
  • • Non-insulated (single skin) roofing – Practical and cost-effective
  • • Corrugated steel roofing – Strong, durable, and widely used in residential applications

All roofing options are selected to suit NSW conditions and long-term performance.

Steel Carport Construction

Our carports are built using engineered steel framing, offering:

  • • High structural strength
  • • Resistance to rot, termites, and warping
  • • Low maintenance requirements
  • • Clean, modern appearance

Steel construction ensures your carport remains reliable and visually consistent with your home over time.

Custom Carport Designs

Every carport is designed to suit your specific needs, including:

  • • Single or double vehicle coverage
  • • Integration with existing patios or homes
  • • Driveway alignment and access
  • • Clearance heights for vehicles
  • • Matching colours and finishes

We take a practical, tailored approach rather than offering prefabricated, one-size-fits-all solutions.

Council & Compliance in NSW

Carports in NSW may require council approval depending on size, height, and location.

  • • Assess your site and structure
  • • Advise on council requirements
  • • Prepare drawings and documentation where required

This ensures your carport is compliant and correctly built from the outset.
