Custom carports that protect your vehicles and suit your home.
Single, double and oversized carports in aluminium. Engineered for Bay of Plenty conditions and finished to match your house.
Protection for your vehicles. A finish that suits your home.
A carport is one of the most practical additions you can make to a property, and one of the most visible. Done well, it keeps cars, boats, caravans and bikes out of the sun, salt and rain while adding to the look of your home rather than detracting from it. At Matrix Outdoor Solutions we design, manufacture and install custom carports for homeowners across Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty, with clean lines, robust engineering and a powder-coated finish built to last.
Unlike kitset carports, every structure we build is designed around your site. We measure the driveway, check clearances for vehicle doors and roof racks, look at how water will run off the roof, and match the profile and colour to your existing home. The result is a carport that looks like it was always meant to be there.
Sizes and configurations
We build single and double carports, tandem layouts for long driveways, and high-clearance structures for motorhomes, boats and work vehicles. Attached carports tie into your existing roofline or fascia, while freestanding designs give you flexibility on placement. Cantilevered options remove posts on one side so you can open doors freely and park without squeezing past a column.
Roofing is available in flat, skillion or gable forms, with long-run metal, polycarbonate or slatted finishes. Add integrated guttering and downpipes, LED lighting, a storage cupboard or privacy screening to one side, and your carport becomes a genuinely useful, all-weather space.
Engineered for the Bay
Coastal air, strong nor-easters and heavy rain are part of life here. Our carports are engineered for the relevant wind zone, fabricated from marine-grade aluminium, and powder-coated in your choice of colour. Footings are sized to your ground conditions and every structure is fabricated in our Tauranga workshop, so quality is checked before it ever reaches your driveway.
Consents, quotes and timeframes
Many carports fall within exempt building work, but larger or attached structures may need consent. We advise on this up front. If consent is required, we can assist by providing the technical drawings and documentation, but we donโt carry out the consent process itself. After a free on-site measure you receive a clear design and fixed quote; from approval, most carports are manufactured and installed within four to eight weeks, with installation itself usually completed in one or two days.

Frequently asked questions.
Can’t find what you’re looking for? Get in touch and we’ll happily talk it through.
Do I need a building consent for a carport?
Freestanding carports under a certain floor area are often exempt, but attached or larger structures may require consent. We check the rules for your site. If consent is required, we can assist by providing the technical drawings and documentation, but we donโt carry out the consent process itself.
How high can you build for a motorhome or boat?
We regularly build carports with three to four metres of clearance. Tell us the height of your vehicle including roof-mounted gear and we design the structure to suit.
Can the carport match my house colours?
Yes. Our powder-coat range includes all popular roofing and joinery colours, so the frame and roof can match or complement your existing home.
Can I add walls or screens later?
Absolutely. We design carports so privacy screens, storage enclosures or a full garage-door conversion can be added down the track.
How long does installation take?
Most residential carports are installed in one to two days once footings have cured. We confirm timing when we book your install.
Will water run off properly?
Every carport is designed with the correct roof fall and integrated guttering and downpipes, directed to stormwater or a soak pit as required.

So.... We got 4 quotes for our outdoor area. Only 2 companies could offer us what we wanted due to the custom fitment and design requirements. We choose Matrix for several reasons, Excellent communication, Prompt timing on meetings, Professional approach and hard case English accents. Mike and Rik are as genuine as it comes. They showed up when they said they would and delivered exactly what they said they would. Their communication professionalism and advice along the way was what we would have expected for a project like this. (It was a big spend for us) The finished detail is on point. I have worked in the building industry for over 15 years in architectural design and builds. So I was happy to see we got the same level of detail here on. our own job. Before our project I had never heard of these guys. Some weird Facebook algorithm lead me to their site. (love some Facebook marketing...) We are in Te Kowhai/Hamilton area and they came from Tauranga. Cool story huh.... Cheers guys.Posted on Google![]()

Mike and the team at Matrix did an incredible job for us.
