Why Choose Shingle Roof Carport Kits?
When it comes to protecting your vehicles, a shingle roof carport kit offers the perfect balance of beauty, durability, and practicality.
Unlike standard metal carports, our shingle roof kits deliver a premium, timeless look that complements Australian homes — from modern suburban properties to acreage blocks.
Key Benefits Include:
- Classic, Attractive Appearance — Shingle roofs have a rich, high-end look that metal simply can’t match
- Superior Heat Performance — Stay noticeably cooler under the roof during hot Australian summers
- Excellent Durability — Quality laminated asphalt shingles are built to handle sun, wind, and rain for many years
- Much Quieter — Significantly less noise during rain compared to metal roofing
- Design Flexibility — Easy to install as a detached structure, which can help with building and fire code considerations
- Kit Format — Complete kit supplied with all components and instructions — ideal for owner-builders or local trades
Most of our customers choose our popular Dual Black shingle finish, but we also offer other attractive colour options to suit your home.
Single vs Double Carport Kits – Which One Is Right For You?
Choosing between a single and double carport kit depends on your needs, vehicles, and available space.
| Feature | Single Carport Kit | Double Carport Kit |
| Best For | One car, motorcycle, or small ute | Two cars, larger vehicles, or extra storage |
| Width | Approx 3.0 – 3.6m | Approx 5.4 – 6.0m |
| Common Use | Small backyards, side access | Families, acreage properties |
| Price Range | Lower | Higher (better value per square metre) |
| Future Proofing | Good | Excellent |
Our Recommendation:
Most customers go with the Double Carport Shingle Roof Kit. It gives you significantly more usable space and better resale value on your property.
All our kits include the premium shingle roofing system (Dual Black is by far the most popular), underlay, flashings, and fixings — everything you need for the roof portion of your carport.
Our Popular Carport Kit Styles
We offer a range of premium shingle roofing kits designed to suit different Australian properties and needs. Here are our most requested options:
Double Carport Shingle Roof Kit
Our bestseller. Perfect for families or anyone wanting space for two vehicles, a car + boat, or extra storage. The generous width and classic shingle roof make it a standout feature on any property.
Single Carport Shingle Roof Kit
Ideal when space is limited or you only need protection for one vehicle. Compact, cost-effective, and still delivers the beautiful shingle roof look.
Carport with Storage Room Kit
A double carport with an attached lockable storage room. Great for tools, bikes, gardening equipment, or general storage while keeping your vehicles under a quality shingle roof.
All kits are supplied with:
- Premium laminated asphalt shingles (Dual Black is our most popular finish)
- High-quality underlayment
- Flashings, ridge capping, and fixings
- Detailed installation instructions
These kits are designed to work with standard timber or steel framing, giving you flexibility to build (or have built) exactly what you need.
Why Shingle Roof Carports Are a Smart Choice in Australia
Shingle roofs have become increasingly popular for carports across Australia — and for good reason.
Here are the main benefits our customers love:
- Stunning Appearance — Shingle roofs give your carport a premium, timeless look that blends beautifully with Australian homes, unlike plain metal roofing.
- Much Cooler in Summer — Shingles reflect and insulate far better than metal, keeping the area under your carport noticeably cooler during hot Australian summers.
- Significantly Quieter — Rain on a shingle roof is much quieter compared to the loud drumming noise common with metal roofs.
- Better Durability in Australian Conditions — Quality laminated asphalt shingles are engineered to handle intense UV, wind, and rain when properly installed.
- Higher Property Value — A well-designed shingle roof carport often adds more visual appeal and perceived value than a standard metal one.
- Design Flexibility — Easy to build as a detached structure, which can help simplify compliance with building and fire codes on many properties.
- Low Maintenance — Once installed correctly, shingle roofs require very little ongoing maintenance.
Whether you’re on a suburban block or acreage, a shingle roof carport kit offers a beautiful and practical solution that stands up to Australian conditions.
