Build A Carport With 4x4. If there happens to be an old structure you can build upon, simply remove all the rotten horizontal members and keep the treated posts. I built this carport after my first one collapsed because of snow.
Nevertheless, a proper planning is essential for the success of the woodworking project. I would have spent only a fraction of the cost. Plan on building the two car carport against an existing wall in your house because it will be able to lean against it.
Mix and dump one bag of sascrete/cement in each hole.
Luckily, the average cost to build a carport is just under $6,000, with most homeowners spending between $4,000 and $5,300. So maybe with both sets of resources, you’ll have a much easier build and end up with a great looking carport. As you can notice in the image, build the braces using 4×4 lumber and cut their ends at 45º. The actual plan for building a carport is quite simple.
