Carport price list by size — East Rand 2026
These are typical supplied-and-installed bands for a galvanised steel frame with IBR roof sheeting on a standard East Rand site. A soil stand needing cast footings, a raised beam for a bakkie-with-canopy, and a wider span for a trailer all move a quote toward the top of each band — which is why the average East Rand structure prices higher than a plain suburban single.
| Carport | Size | Covers | Price band (installed) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single | 3m × 6m | 1 car or double-cab bakkie | R6,500 – R14,000 |
| Double | 6m × 6m | 2 cars, or bakkie + car | R12,500 – R24,000 |
| Double (tandem) | 3m × 12m | 2 vehicles in line on a driveway | R13,000 – R25,000 |
| Triple | 9m × 6m | 3 cars, or 2 + a trailer/boat | R19,000 – R38,000 |
| Four-bay | 12m × 6m | 4 vehicles / full plot setup | R27,000 – R52,000 |

What changes the price
Five things move an East Rand carport quote inside its band. Roof sheeting is the biggest: hail-rated IBR or Q-deck costs more than flat polycarbonate or a shade net, and it is the part that stops open-veld hail. The others are the steel gauge, the roof style, the beam height, and the ground — a bolt-down onto sound paving is cheaper than digging and casting footings, and on the region's plots and holdings cast footings are the norm rather than the exception.
- Roof sheeting — IBR/Q-deck steel > polycarbonate > shade net, priced in that order.
- Frame — galvanised steel is standard; aluminium and timber cost more.
- Style — a cantilever (no front posts) carries a premium over a standard flat or pitched roof.
- Size & height — work the span and beam height in the carport sizes guide before you compare quotes.

Common questions
How much is a double carport in Ekurhuleni?
A double carport in Ekurhuleni costs R12,500–R24,000 supplied and installed in galvanised steel with IBR roofing. A tandem double (two vehicles in line, 3m × 12m) runs R13,000–R25,000, and an aluminium double R22,000–R40,000.
Why does a plot carport cost more than a suburban one?
A plot carport costs more because it usually spans more bays, carries a taller 2.7–3.0 m beam for a bakkie or trailer, and sits on soil that needs cast concrete footings rather than a bolt-down onto paving. A four-bay plot setup runs R27,000–R52,000.
Does the carport price include installation?
Yes. Every KB Carports Ekurhuleni price band is supplied and installed — it covers the steel, the roof sheeting, the footings and the fitting. The on-site measure and the quote are free, on homes and business premises alike.
Can I get a quote for a commercial or fleet carport?
Yes. KB Carports quotes staff-parking, fleet and delivery-vehicle carports for East Rand businesses free of charge. Price depends on the number of bays and the beam height; the same steel-and-IBR bands scale up for a multi-bay commercial run.
