At Fichtner Home Exteriors, we’re raising the roof—figuratively and literally—to celebrate an incredible milestone. For 14 consecutive years, the readers of What’s Up? Media have voted us Central Maryland’s best in home exterior categories through their Best of Annapolis Awards. Whether it’s roofing, siding, windows, or gutters, we’ve topped the list every year since 2011, a streak that reflects the trust we’ve built with homeowners from Annapolis to Anne Arundel County and beyond.

What’s Up? Media has been a Chesapeake Bay staple since 1997, delivering lifestyle insights to over 300,000 readers monthly. Their annual awards, fueled by tens of thousands of votes, shine a spotlight on the region’s standout businesses. To be named #1 in categories like roofing one year, windows the next, or siding after that—and to keep that momentum for 14 years—isn’t just an honor; it’s a testament to our team’s dedication.

“Fourteen years of this recognition feels surreal,” says Tom Fichtner, our owner and president. “Every vote reminds us why we do this: to provide quality that lasts and service our community can count on.”

Roofing is where we started, and it’s still our heartbeat. With credentials like GAF Master Elite status—earned by just 3% of roofing contractors nationwide—and membership in the National Roofing Contractors Association since 2000, we bring expertise to every shingle and seam. But our skills don’t stop there. From energy-efficient windows to durable siding and custom gutters, we’ve spent decades perfecting the craft of home exteriors. Our 97% recommendation rate? That’s the real reward, straight from the homeowners we serve.

What keeps us going after all these years? It’s the chance to make a difference, one home at a time. Storm-ready roofs, seamless siding, precision-installed windows—these aren’t just projects; they’re promises kept. Licensed under MHIC #50157, we’re proud to call Annapolis home and prouder still to be part of this community’s story.

Here’s to 14 years of trust—and to many more. Thank you, Central Maryland, for choosing Fichtner Home Exteriors as your go-to exterior experts, year after year.
