Carports vs. Garages: Pros and Cons
Which is better, a carport or a garage?
We have long tandem garage and there is separate room under back end of garage for storage. Wood sheet flooring was done by previous owner, but it is not supported from floor to beams for heavy load of a vehicle. We would like to strengthen the wood floor 3mx3m size which has mmx50mm beams running across only. Need most cost effective and easiest solution for this alteration.

Would like to add a dining area(4x2) and a 3rd bedroom(3x4) with a carport of about 4x5.5m. The carport to have garage door as an entrance. We have a back door in the kitchen, so would like to add the extension on from the kitchen. Please see attached rough idea of what I would like, no plans as yet.
Breek n deur vanaf die woonvertrek in die garage in. Verander die aangrensende garage in n slaapkamer met n badkamer - stort, wasbak en toilet. (Ek het reeds n loodgieter se kwotasie aanvaar.) Breek alle vloerteëls in bestaande eenman-tuinwoonstel uit en teël alle vloere sowel as die nuwe badkamer. Hang n barn-door tussen woonvertrek en nuwe kamer. Ek het ook reeds n elektrisiën wat op my perseel woon.
