Covered parking for apartment owners and property managers

Residents want a covered space, and owners can lease it. Superior Steelworx designs, fabricates and installs steel carports for apartment communities in Texas and Louisiana, and adds carports to properties that are already built and occupied. See our retrofit carports.

How we approach property owners and managers projects

Adding covered parking to a property that is already leased means working around residents, utilities and drive aisles. We start with a site plan or aerial photo, mark where a carport fits without blocking fire lanes or access, and plan the install in phases so spaces are never out of service longer than necessary.

Why it works for this buyer

Protection your residents notice

A steel roof keeps sun, rain and hail off residents' cars and give them a dry walk to the door.

A space you can lease

Covered parking can be assigned or leased, which turns a parking lot into an amenity.

Planned around a living property

Send a site plan or aerial and we will show what fits around utilities, fire lanes and drive aisles.

  • Which rows or areas do residents want covered first?
  • Where are underground utilities, drainage inlets, light poles and dumpsters?
  • Will the spaces be assigned, leased or included in rent?
  • Can the work be phased by building or by row?

Questions from property owners and managers buyers

Can you add carports to a property that is already built?

Yes. The layout depends on utilities, drainage and drive-aisle geometry, so we start with a site plan or aerial photo and show what fits. See our retrofit carports.

Do you repair existing steel?

We offer steel repairs. Send photos and a description of the damage.

Can the carports match our buildings?

We paint and powder-coat to match the building color schedule.

Send us your plans. We'll send you a bid.

Upload drawings or tell us the location and number of stalls. Our estimating team reviews it and replies.
