Question 1

Are RV Covers worth the money?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they are. RV Covers keep your RV clean and in good condition. The outdoor elements can cause wear and tear and your RV over the years. Damage can occur to all parts of an RV if it is stored with no cover. With a quality metal RV cover, you are getting protection from rain, UV rays, snow, hail, debris, etc. Customers have found that the investment is worth it to keep their RV in good condition over many years.

Question 2

Do RV Covers cause damage?

Accepted Answer

Poorly made RV Covers can cause damage to your RV over the years. It would be smart to invest in a good quality RV Cover, such as metal, that will last for years to come. Materials such as wood and cloth can damage your RV because they are not long-lasting and not the best quality so they will allow the weather to erode your valuables. Although these materials are cheaper, customers have found that the investment in a good quality RV cover saves them money and is worth it in the long run.

Question 3

Should I cover my RV in the winter?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Elements such as rain, snow, hail, debris, etc. can damage your RV over time. By investing in a good quality RV cover, you are protecting your RV from exterior and interior damage. Things such as water leaks, wind damage, and paint damage can occur when a RV is not covered, especially during winter.

Question 4

Is it carport or car porch?

Accepted Answer

People use the word carport and the term car porch both interchangeably. The car porch can cover your car and give you a little porch area to sit outside and enjoy your surroundings. A carport is simply a word that describes a port - or covered - area to go over your car, truck, van, etc.

Question 5

How tall should a carport be?

Accepted Answer

Your carport should be at least wide enough for you to open the doors of your vehicle and move around it comfortably while still undercover. If you want covered parking for two vehicles, the structure should be at least 18 feet wide for cars and 20 feet wide for two larger SUVs or trucks. The carport does not need to be excessively tall; this is a common mistake that leads to a much higher price than it is necessary to pay for proper coverage of your valuables.

Question 6

How long does it take to install a carport?

Accepted Answer

Plan on at least 12 weeks minimum for your carport installation to begin; this is where the wait comes. Since COVID-19 began, there have been many product delays and metal production is an item that has been heavily delayed. It is taking a lot longer to get carports installed now than ever before. There is increased demand, as well as a slowing in general which has affected this outcome.

Question 7

What is the meaning of car porch?

Accepted Answer

A car porch - or carporch - is a roof covering that can have open or closed sides and that allows you a porch area and vehicle coverage at the same time. You can choose to have just the roof or have additional coverage by partially or fully enclosed the sides. This way, you can sit on your porch and park your covered car with the same structure.
