Above Garage Addition – Fairhaven, MA

American Pride Construction recently completed a custom above-garage addition in Fairhaven, MA, designed to provide the homeowners with much-needed living space while maintaining the architectural integrity of their existing home.

The project involved reinforcing the existing garage structure to support the new second-story addition, carefully integrating the new framing with the original build. Our team ensured proper structural support, insulation, and energy efficiency while seamlessly tying the new roofline and exterior finishes into the home’s existing design.

Project Highlights:

• Structural reinforcement of existing garage

• Full second-story framing and roof integration

• Matching siding and exterior trim for a cohesive look

• New windows to maximize natural light

• Complete interior finishing including flooring, drywall, electrical, and HVAC extension

The newly added space now serves as a versatile living area — perfect for a home office, guest suite, or bonus room — giving the homeowners increased functionality without expanding their footprint on the property.

Throughout the project, our team maintained clear communication, organized scheduling, and attention to detail to ensure a smooth build from start to finish.

This Fairhaven above-garage addition is a great example of how thoughtful planning and quality craftsmanship can transform underutilized space into beautiful, practical square footage.
