JM Carports serves Riverside, CA, and the surrounding Inland Empire and ships structures to all 48 contiguous states.

What size concrete slab do I need for my structure?
Your concrete slab should be one foot wider and one foot longer than the footprint of your structure. For example, a 12-foot-by-20-foot carport requires a 13-foot-by-21-foot slab. If you are not sure what size slab your specific structure requires, our team can walk you through the calculation when you call or text us at 951-776-3993.
Do I need a permit for my carport or metal building?
Permit requirements vary by city and county throughout Riverside County, San Bernardino County, and the surrounding Inland Empire communities, including Moreno Valley, Corona, San Bernardino, Fontana, Ontario, and Rancho Cucamonga. You will need to check with your local building department to determine whether a permit is required for the size and type of structure you are planning. If a permit is required, JM Carports can provide a certified structure engineered to meet your local building codes, complete with engineer-stamped plans and proper footing specifications.
