Schultheiss Exterior is a one-man outdoor-carpentry shop in East Walpole built around fences — privacy, cedar, chainlink, custom gates — plus decks, railings, and other exterior structures. Nathan Schultheiss founded the company in 2019 after more than 20 years working for a high-end outdoor contractor, and the company says it's now in its seventh year, still owner-operated. The six Google reviews on file, running from early 2025 into 2026, all describe fence and outdoor-carpentry jobs and all land at five stars, with the same specifics recurring across different customers: quoted prices held firm through the finished invoice, projects finished in the timeframe promised, and Nathan handling calls and emails himself. One homeowner had roughly 60 feet of privacy fence installed in a single day despite heavy digging; another had a cedar fence installed at the exact quoted price; a church had a fence and gate latch built around its nursery/children's area to meet safety requirements, with Nathan handling the permitting; and one project combined chainlink fencing, cedar fencing, and two custom gate doors. A repeat-referring interior designer separately described him as consistently meeting her clients' expectations across projects. What's here is a small but consistent sample rather than a long paper trail — six reviews collected so far, with nothing yet from BBB, local news, or forums. The company's website also states that Nathan holds a Massachusetts Construction Supervisor License and a Home Improvement Contractor License, though those are the company's own claims rather than something checked against the state registry. For a fence, gate, deck, or other outdoor-carpentry project around East Walpole, the reviews point to a contractor who answers his own phone and sticks to his numbers — worth confirming his current licensing directly and asking how a same-day timeline would scale to a bigger job.
Nathan was very easy to work with. He answered the phone, returned emails and always got back to me in a timely manner. His pricing was competitive. We had about 60 feet of privacy fence installed. It was done in 1 day, despite all the digging they had to do. They left the area clean, and the fence looks amazing. Nathan even cut the pavers they removed to install the posts, to fit around the new posts. From my experience with him on this job, I would recommend Nathan to anyone.
I can’t say enough great things about Nathan at Schultheiss Exterior. He put in a new cedar fence at the exact price he quoted at and it looks perfect. He was fast, responsive, and most importantly an easy to work with and honest guy. Highly recommend to anybody considering him as a contractor.
Schultheiss Exterior added a railing to our porch and skirting around out porch and deck. The results are beautiful! They handled all of the permitting requirements. The final fee was exactly what we were quoted in the estimate. Everything was completed in a timely fashion and within the time frame estimated from the very beginning. Definitely recommend!
Schultheiss Exterior planned and installed a fence at my church. The fence went around the outside of the nursery/children's area. Nathan made sure the fence and latch met all safety requirements for the intended purpose. Now we have a great outdoor space for the kids to enjoy that is safe and looks great!
Nathan’s professionalism, communication and quality of work is excellent. He installed chainlink fence around my pool, cedar fencing around my back yard property and built two custom gate doors. It’s hard these days to find reliable professionals that will answer the phone call or get back to you with clear expectations. Thanks Nathan!
