Fort Thomas takes its name from the Army post General Philip Sheridan sited on the Highlands above the Ohio River in 1890, and the 102-foot Stone Water Tower at the entrance to Tower Park still marks that history on South Fort Thomas Avenue. Today the city is known for its schools — Highlands High School, Highlands Middle, and Johnson, Moyer and Woodfill elementaries — and for established neighborhoods where families stay for decades.
Long-time homes mean long-serving appliances, and plenty of kitchens remodeled around a built-in oven, cooktop, or counter-depth refrigerator. When one of those fails, replacing it can mean cabinetry work, so a careful repair is usually the better call. Niceley's has been providing appliance repair across Campbell County since 1994, from our shop in Erlanger.
When something breaks in your Fort Thomas kitchen or laundry room, you'll reach a real person who answers the phone, shows up when promised, and arrives with the likely part already on the truck.
Washer & Dryer Repair
Busy school-year households run the laundry hard, and that's when belts wear, pumps clog and dryer heating elements quit. Our technicians diagnose the washer or dryer in your Fort Thomas home, explain what's wrong, and give you the price before any work starts. Many older Fort Thomas homes have long dryer vent runs or vents tucked into tight spaces, so we check the vent too.
A blocked vent often causes a good dryer to stop drying.
Dishwasher Repair
Whether it's a dishwasher that won't drain, leaves a film, or leaks at the door, we repair all major brands. That includes panel-ready and built-in models that are common in remodeled Fort Thomas kitchens.
We pull and reset units carefully, so your cabinetry and flooring are left the way we found them.
Microwave Oven Repair
Over-the-range and built-in microwaves are high-voltage appliances and shouldn't be a DIY project. If yours won't heat, runs with a dark display, or trips a breaker, our technicians diagnose it safely and tell you whether repair makes sense for the age and model.
Garbage Disposal Repair
A disposal that hums without spinning, leaks from the bottom, or keeps tripping its reset is usually a jam, a worn seal, or a failing motor. We clear it, repair it, or replace it, and check the connections under the sink so a small leak doesn't damage the cabinet.
Oven Repair - Gas & Electric
Wall ovens, ranges, and cooktops — gas or electric — are routine work for us. We diagnose igniters, bake and broil elements, temperature sensors, and control boards for all major brands.
For built-in units, repair is usually the better choice, since replacing one can mean cabinet work too.
Refrigerator & Freezer Repair
A refrigerator running warm, a freezer frosting up, or an ice maker that's gone quiet can't wait long. We troubleshoot compressors, fans, defrost systems, ice makers, and door seals on all major brands — including counter-depth and built-in models — often same-day.
