Carriage

Guaranteed Builders & Developers has been customizing, engineering and building cost-efficient garages for over 50 years.

The Carriage Style Garage is a 1-1/2 Story, 2 car garage.   It provides a spacious second floor with high ceilings to use as storage, or can be finished as an office, studio, or added living space depending on your local building codes.  The roof design adds style and character to the garage.  Finishing options include drywall, insulation, trim and flooring, and with our clear span roof truss system, there is no need for a post or lally column in the center. The upstairs is fully customizable from floor to ceiling, and we can even alter the roof pitch.  

The standard footprint for a Carriage Style Garage is 24’ x 28’.  All garage dimensions can be extended if you have the space.  Garages can be detached or attached to your home directly or via a breezeway.

We build our garages on-site with the highest quality materials.  You can watch the process from start to finish as your space moves from a foundation, to walls to finished product.  Our Construction Supervisor and/or Field Supervisor are onsite daily to ensure safety and efficiency.  Our entire site crew—from foundations and electricians to plumbers and carpenters -- are our employees to ensure there are no delays in the building process.

Building your dream garage is easy.  Call our knowledgeable sales staff at 508-476-1500 and we will schedule a free, no-obligation appointment for one of our Construction Supervisors to meet at your home.  After quick measurements and a discussion about your ideas for the proposed garage, we can provide a formal quote.  

We know your time is valuable, so we handle the complete permit process, from the initial application, straight through to the final inspection and occupancy.  We meet with inspectors, zoning, conservation, historical committee if needed.  We jump the hurdles on your behalf.  

After obtaining the building permit, we start the building process.  Building takes place year-round; winter does not stop the build!  The foundat hole is dug and the footings, walls and floor are poured.  Our professional framers will stick build the garage on site with pre-engineered roof trusses.  The roof shingles are installed and the outer sheathing is done.  Installing the windows and doors is next. The siding crew is next with siding and then the overhead doors are installed.  Electrical work is done during the process as well.
