St. Lucie County carports
Shopping for St. Lucie County carports that can handle Treasure Coast storms? We design, permit and install steel carports, boat covers, metal garages, RV covers and clear-span buildings from Fort Pierce and Hutchinson Island to Port St. Lucie and the western ranch land. In addition, every building is engineered for the design wind speed at your address, and across Florida those speeds run from about 115 to 170 mph.
We install in every Florida county except Miami-Dade and Broward, and permitting assistance is included with every order. To get started, compare our installed price charts, check standard carport sizes or read the metal garage buyer’s guide.
Popular in St. Lucie County
From two-car carports in Port St. Lucie to boat covers in Fort Pierce and equipment barns out west, these are the buildings St. Lucie County owners ask for most.
Above all, shade and storm protection for cars, trucks and golf carts.
For example, extra length for center consoles and bay boats on the Indian River Lagoon.
Plus equipment and hay buildings for western citrus groves and ranch land.
Fully enclosed, and also fitted with wind-rated roll-up doors.
Similarly, 32′ to 60′ wide buildings for contractors, fleets and storage.
Built for the Treasure Coast
St. Lucie County runs from Atlantic barrier islands and the Indian River Lagoon to citrus groves and ranch land in the west. As a result, owners deal with hurricane winds, coastal flood zones, salt air and heavy summer rain.
Our St. Lucie County recommendation
In our experience, this setup holds up best to Florida storms and summer downpours. It is also what plan reviewers expect to see on the drawings.
Permit services
All of them enforce the Florida Building Code. However, each has its own forms and review process, so we confirm the right office for your address before we file.
| Where your property is | Who reviews the permit |
|---|---|
| Unincorporated St. Lucie County (Lakewood Park, White City, Indian River Estates, Hutchinson Island and more) | The county Building & Code Regulation Division, through Citizen Self Service |
| Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie and St. Lucie Village | Each city issues its own permits |
