Nichols Has a Railroad History and Tough Weather
Nichols started as a rail town in the early 1870s, built on land that was once called Elephant Swamp. Two rail lines used to cross here, and the old brick buildings along Ijem Avenue still show that history. Today, you’ll find older farmhouses, historic homes near the downtown district, and some newer places on the edge of town.We’ve worked on plenty of Nichols roofs, from the historic district to the rural edges. We don’t guess. We fly a drone, look at every slope, and give you a straight answer.

Free Drone Inspection – No Ladder, No Guesswork
What we often find on Nichols roofs:
- Hail dents that break shingle seals

- Rusted flashing around chimneys and vents
- Ponding water on low-slope sections
We show you the photos and explain what they mean. No charge. No pressure.

Don’t Ignore Storm Damage in Nichols
Nichols gets severe thunderstorms, hail, and high winds every year. The open farmland around Nichols lets storms build up speed before they roll through. Hail can bruise shingles without knocking them off. Wind can lift edges and break seals around vents. Ice dams can form after heavy snow. You might not see a problem until water stains your ceiling or mold grows in your attic. By then, you could need new decking, insulation, and drywall.
A free drone inspection costs you nothing. It could save you thousands.
