As a general guide, a custom carport commonly starts from around $6,000–$10,000, while larger double or architectural carports can reach $15,000–$25,000+. Custom verandahs commonly range from about $8,000 to $30,000+, depending on size, roofing, framing, finishes and site conditions.

Once approvals and fabrication are complete, a straightforward carport may take around 1–3 days on site, while a larger or more detailed verandah can take several days to a few weeks. The complete process from design and approval through fabrication and installation commonly takes around 4–12 weeks, depending on permits, materials and project complexity.

In Victoria, carports and verandahs will generally require a building permit. A separate planning permit may also be required depending on your property's zoning, overlays, lot size, setbacks or heritage controls. For example, Victorian councils identify new carports and verandahs as works that commonly require building approval.

Yes. LATITUDE can customise the width, height, roof profile, posts, framing, colours and finishes to suit your home. We can also coordinate the carport or verandah with existing or new fencing, driveway gates and pedestrian gates, helping the whole frontage or outdoor area feel consistent rather than looking like separate additions.
