Contract (Detailed Job Specification) Our second meeting can take place at your home or in our Fairhaven, Massachusetts office.

We added a family room to this Fairhaven, MA home to provide the family with much needed extra space. It was important for the homeowners to have room for entertaining guests.

Two skylights, plenty of windows, and a sliding glass door bring in tons of natural light. Matching wood floors were installed in the addition to match the main house to ensure a unified look.
