Meet the Team
Nichols Outdoor Works is a Nashville-based company offering fence and gate installation, repair, painting, weatherproofing, and automatic gate services, plus trailer repair and electrical inspections. Nashville's humid summers and freeze-thaw cycles cause wooden fences to rot, warp, or shift—a common issue in neighborhoods like 12South and East Nashville. We address this by inspecting, repairing, or replacing damaged sections, applying weatherproofing treatments, and installing gates that stay aligned despite ground movement. Our team also handles manual and automatic gate repairs, ensuring properties from The Gulch to Belle Meade remain secure and functional. With a focus on practical, long-lasting solutions, Nichols Outdoor Works helps Nashville homeowners and businesses maintain durable, weather-resistant fences and gates year-round.
Q&A
What causes fence posts to lean or sag in Nashville's climate?
Nashville's freeze-thaw cycles and heavy clay soil cause ground movement. Water expands when frozen, pushing posts upward; when thawed, the soil shifts. Over time, posts loosen, rot at ground level, or lean. Our fence repair service re-anchors posts, replaces rotted sections, and can install concrete footings to prevent future shifting.
How can I tell if my fence needs weatherproofing before winter?
Look for signs like peeling paint, visible wood grain, splintering, or water stains near the base. If water beads on the surface, it's still protected; if it soaks in like a sponge, it's time to seal. We offer fence weatherproofing and staining that creates a moisture barrier, protecting wood from Nashville's wet winters and humid summers.
My automatic gate stopped working after a storm—what should I do?
First, check the power supply and reset the breaker. If that doesn't work, storm debris or moisture may have damaged the motor, sensors, or wiring. We specialize in automatic gate repair in Nashville, diagnosing electrical issues (we're also electricians) and replacing worn parts like gears or control boards. We can also install surge protection to prevent future storm damage.
