Rain or snow, day after day.
We make the car — and your daily comings and goings — comfortable.
Because it's part of every single day, how easy your car space is to use flows straight into the comfort of daily life. Getting in and out without the rain reaching you, walking easily even with arms full of shopping — it's the small things, adding up.
At Iwai, we choose a carport and a design that suit the feel of your home, and we think it through with you — right down to a space that's easy to park in and move around. If you're wondering "will it even fit on my lot?", let us come take a look first. We'll shape something that fits your land just right.
The morning commute, shopping on a rainy day, the beating summer sun. Just one roof overhead makes getting in and out far easier every day. Even where the snow falls heavy, we build it sturdy and suited to the area — so there's less windscreen to clear and less wear on the car.
The size of the car, how many you park, how easy it is to come in off the road — it differs with every lot. Is it easy to reverse in? Is there room with the doors open? Picturing the moments you'll actually use it, we settle on the width and angle together — easy to park, easy to leave.
Because a carport is large, it shapes the impression of your home in a big way. We propose the roof shape, the post placement, and the paving finish so they sit naturally with the colour of the house and the scenery around it. Want it to double as a bike shelter or storage? Just ask.
Consultations and estimates are free. We'll tell you straight what costs what.
"Can it even be done on my lot?" or "this is about the budget I have" — please don't hold back. We'll work out what's possible within it, together.
Yes — we plan it around the cars you drive. The number of cars, of course, but also their size, the room to open the doors, how easy it is to turn in from the road — picturing how you'll really use it, we decide together on a shape that's easy to park and step out of. And if you might add another car down the road, tell us that too.
Often, yes. Keeping your current concrete and layout and just adding the carport roof is a job we take on regularly. Let us see the spot first, and we'll suggest a lean approach that makes the most of what's already there.
Yes — we suggest a sturdy build made for this area's snow. Some years bring heavy snow here in Tono, so we can choose one strong enough to bear the load. We often hear "last year's snow had me worried." Tell us how much snow you'd like to be ready for.
Yes, it can. The space under the roof is handy not just for the car but for bikes, a stroller, or a bit of storage. We'll ask how you'd like to use it and suggest a width and position to match. Tell us "I'd like to use it like this" without holding back.
Let us see the spot first. Narrow, tight, sloping — every lot is shaped differently, and finding the right fit for each is exactly our job. Even on a lot where you think "mine's probably impossible," it often does fit. Before you give up, come talk to us once.
