Custom carport is one of the most cost-effective, stylish, and functional ways to protect your vehicle from Western Australia’s unforgiving sun. Whether you’re a first-time homeowner, a growing family, or enjoying your retirement years, safeguarding your car from sun damage is a smart investment that adds value to your lifestyle and your home.
Here in Perth, we know the sun shines strong almost all year round. While that’s great for beach days and barbies, it’s brutal on your car. The paint fades, the seats crack, and the internal temperature can climb to levels that feel more like an oven than a driver’s seat. That’s why so many WA homeowners are turning to The Patio Factory for a custom carport that is tailor-made for local conditions.
Let’s face it, the WA sun is no joke. While your car might be built to handle a bit of heat, constant exposure to the elements will take its toll over time. A custom carport creates an instant barrier between your car and harsh UV rays, bird droppings, rain, and even hail. Without this layer of protection, your car is vulnerable to:
Peeling or fading paintwork
Cracking dashboards and interiors
Battery and tyre degradation
Damage to electrical systems
Overheating that affects driving comfort
By installing a carport designed specifically for your home and your needs, you’re making a long-term decision that preserves the value of one of your biggest assets.
There are plenty of carports on the market, but not all of them are created equal. A custom carport from The Patio Factory isn’t just a place to park your car. It’s an extension of your home’s design, built with precision, purpose, and premium materials. Here’s what sets us apart:
Personalised Designs: We work with you to create a carport that suits your home’s architecture, whether you want a gable, skillion, or flat roof.
Quality Australian Materials: Using Colorbond® and Bluescope steel ensures your carport is tough, durable, and built for WA conditions.
3D Design Previews: Visualise your carport before we build it with our in-house design software.
Council-Approved Plans: We handle the paperwork so you don’t have to stress about permits.
Professional Installation: Our expert builders take care of everything from site prep to clean-up.
A cookie-cutter structure won’t provide the same quality or visual appeal. With a custom carport, you’re getting a tailored solution designed to meet your lifestyle and stand the test of time.
A well-built custom carport does more than protect your car. It adds real, tangible value to your property. Whether you’re planning to stay in your home long-term or sell in the future, potential buyers will see your carport as a practical and stylish bonus.
In Perth’s property market, functional outdoor spaces are highly sought after. A carport that blends seamlessly with your home’s existing style can boost your home’s appeal while also reducing the impact of harsh weather on your vehicles and outdoor equipment.
A custom carport can serve multiple purposes beyond vehicle storage. Many of our clients use their carport as:
A shaded play area for kids
Extra covered entertaining space
A weatherproof storage area for bikes, tools, and gear
A safe, dry spot for loading groceries or unpacking the car
Because every carport is custom-designed, you can request features like lighting, integrated screens, or extra space to suit your needs. Whether you need single, double, or triple-car capacity, we’ve got you covered.
Our carports are designed with all of our customer types in mind:
For young families (like Emily & Josh): A carport offers shade, safety, and easy access to your vehicle, perfect for buckling in kids or unloading prams. With finance options available, it’s an achievable upgrade.
For retirees (like Barb & Bob): A hassle-free carport means easier access and lower maintenance. Our team handles the full installation, so you won’t have to lift a finger.
For DIY-savvy tradies (like Jack & Jodie): We offer supply-only options with technical drawings and Aussie-made materials, ideal for confident self-installers.
No matter your stage of life, a custom carport is a smart move for protecting your investment and enjoying your outdoor space more fully.
