Chris Fischvogt started his apprenticeship with general contracting in 2002. Within two years, he was buying his own houses to renovate. He acquired his MHIC license and others began hiring him to do to their houses what he had done to his own. His business continued to grow, and he now works with over 20 realtors in the Baltimore area who trust him to get the job done well and at a fair price.
By starting at the bottom and doing the grunt work, Chris has a thorough understanding of the work involved in each job. Because he has worked on his own houses, he understands the importance of doing a quality job the first time around. We will treat your house like it's our house, paying attention to the details and ensuring good craftsmanship!

Services
We used Fischvogt General Contracting for several home improvement projects, but the latest and most spectacular is the new loft above our bedroom. Chris not only oversaw all the construction, but helped with the design and selection of many of my favorite architectural features. His keen sense of our taste, his dedication to completing the job within budget, as well as his easy-going manner made working with him a pleasure.

Fischvogt General Contracting is a greatly reliable service in the Baltimore area. They have twice now delivered consistently well-done, beautiful results in different rooms in my home with varying levels of repair work to be done. Chris and his team are honest and upfront about all possible needs throughout their working time and they are incredibly efficient on site. They will be the first name that I give to friends in the near future.

We hired Fischvogt Contracting to replace a set of porch stairs and decking in front of our house that had gone from eyesore to hazard. We wanted to maintain the look of the porch, and without going into a lot of detail, Chris and his team did exactly that with their excellent carpentry and painting - they replaced the tongue and groove pine boards with the same type of lumber, found railings and rail posts of a very similar style to the originals, matched the two different types of paint used perfectly, and even improved the appearance of the kickboards by using single boards. They also repainted

Hired Chris to hang new drywall in our narrow stairwell. Chris’ initial consultation was thorough and we were impressed with his attention to detail and knowledge. He identified a structural issue that other contractors we interviewed did not pick up on. As a result, Chris was able to provide us with an accurate cost estimate up front. During the project, Chris did a great job managing his team and communicating with us. Ultimately, we were happy with both the final work product and our experience working with Chris.

My husband and I bought a beautiful historic home in Baltimore a year and a half ago. Our realtor recommended Fischvogt Contracting for home repairs, and I am so thankful she knew of Chris and his team! They have removed walls, renovated our kitchen, refinished hardwood floors, painted walls and ceilings, installed lighting, and turned the original third-floor bathroom back into its original clean, pristine state. Chris is wonderful to work with - a good listener, offers advice if you ask for it (or seem clueless), does the work when he says he will, and is always very kind. He and his teams do
