Apex Pergolas brings The Luxury Pergola® — America's finest louvered pergola system — to Cincinnati homeowners. Professionally designed, expertly installed, backed by a lifetime warranty.
"I've spent 4 years building outdoor living spaces for Cincinnati homeowners — decks, roofs, patios. When I discovered The Luxury Pergola®, I knew it was the product my clients had been asking for. I became an authorized dealer and installer so I could offer the best of both worlds: a world-class product, installed by someone you can actually trust."
— Nathan Ricke, Owner | Apex Pergolas | Cincinnati, OH

Book a Free Consultation with NathanNathan Ricke has been building outdoor living spaces for Cincinnati homeowners for four years. Apex Pergolas is his newest venture — bringing the finest louvered pergola in America to the Cincinnati market.
Hi, I'm Nathan Ricke. For the past four years, I've been helping Cincinnati homeowners create outdoor living spaces they're proud of. I've built over 100 decks, roofs, and patios across Greater Cincinnati — and in that time, one question kept coming up from my clients: "Do you do pergolas?"
I took that seriously. I researched the market, tested products, and found one that stood apart from everything else: The Luxury Pergola®. Made in America from aircraft-grade aluminum, engineered to withstand Ohio winters, and backed by a lifetime warranty — it's the product I'd put in my own backyard.
I became an authorized dealer and installer so I could offer it to you directly, with the same white-glove service my clients have come to expect. No middlemen. No out-of-town crews. Just Nathan and his team, right here in Cincinnati.
If you've been thinking about a pergola, I'd love to come look at your space. The consultation is completely free, and there's zero pressure. Let's talk about what's possible.
You'll always know what's happening with your project. Nathan is personally reachable throughout the entire process — not just at the sale.
We don't rush installations. Every post, connection, and finish is done right. We'd rather take an extra day than leave you with something that's anything less than perfect.
This is our city. We live here, we work here, and we care about our reputation in this community. Every project is a reflection of who we are.
Fill out the form and Nathan will personally reach out within one business day to schedule a free on-site visit. No pressure, no sales pitch — just an honest conversation about what's possible for your backyard.
Thanks — Nathan will be in touch within one business day.
