“Nolan and his crew did an amazing job on our rooftop deck!! Nolan made the process so easy to get things set up, the men showed up on time, were extremely polite and so hard working, and cleaned up before they left! Our entire deck was done in 1 week, which is pretty remarkable. Price was very competitive. I would HIGHLY recommend Fichtner to anyone! If you live in the city and need a rooftop deck, they are the company to call.”
