If you’ve stepped outside recently then you know, winter has officially arrived. Whether or not you’re a fan of the cold and ice, everyone can agree that there’s nothing worse than heading out before work to scrape off those frosty car windows. At Hometown Sheds, we can help make your mornings a little easier this, and every winter, with a durable carport.

A Blanket for Your Vehicle. Simply put, frost is a thin layer of ice on a solid surface, in this case – your car. With a carport from Hometown, you are essentially adding a blanket to cover your car – the same way the weatherman will often suggest using a covering to protect your flowers or vegetables. The radiant heat from your car gets trapped under the roof, meaning that all the moisture in the air freezes everywhere but on your car.

Weathering The Storms. Our buildings have standard 29 gauge steel paneling. The standard tubing is 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″ 14 gauge, or you can upgrade to 12 gauge with 2 1/4″ x 2 1/4″. (Learn more about our buildings here.) And, our carports are not only durable and effective, they are attractive and can be used for multiple purposes. Chose from many colors, sizes, and styles even windows, enclosures or add on a garage for full coverage.

This winter, and for those to come, enjoy your frost free automobiles and leave the frost to old man winter. Stop in or call us today for find our all of the many options that we offer at Hometown Sheds.
