Owner
Dieter Fiek
Founder of Atlanta Remodeling & Construction, Dieter brings 15 years of experience in general contracting with a determination to break the mold of the industry by centering his company mission on advocating for the client and leading a team that strives to deliver projects in an exceptional manner by embracing both quality and passion. He understands this is severely lacking in the industry and has built a proven track record in both residential and commercial projects driven through referrals.
Originally from Lima, Peru; Dieter moved to the United States as a child. As an adult, he excelled in business development through his passion for improving on the consumer to business experience. Born to a family of entrepreneurs, Dieter followed in those footsteps and went into business with his father and sister in the summer of 1999. Together they launched Paint Etc.; the sister company to what is now Atlanta Remodeling & Construction. Years later in 2014, he founded ARC with the same mission in mind which has experienced continued growth year after year supporting both Atlanta area homes and businesses.
When Dieter isn’t working, he spends time with his wife, April and their dog Lily. He spends most weekends with his family, playing basketball or enjoying Atlanta neighborhood restaurants!
