WAYNESVILLE, OH – June 25, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
OE Decks & Outdoor Living, a veteran-owned and family-run outdoor construction company, has made custom deck design and construction the central focus of its work this summer as homeowner interest in outdoor living space across Southwest Ohio reaches its seasonal peak. Warm-weather months are the busiest stretch of the year for deck construction in the region, and the company said its design and build calendar fills quickly once spring turns to summer.
The company was founded in 2017 by Ryan Rust, who built the business alongside his wife, Rebecca Rust, after stepping away from a long corporate career. The company name reflects its founding principle, with the letters OE standing for Only Excellence, a standard the team applies from the first design conversation through the final walkthrough. Decks have remained at the center of the business since its first projects.
Custom deck design and construction anchors the company’s services. OE Decks & Outdoor Living designs and builds residential and commercial decks in a range of styles, including platform, raised, multi-level, freestanding, rooftop, pool, curved, cantilevered, and covered designs, as well as screened-porch decks. Each project begins with a consultation and a three-dimensional design model so homeowners can review the finished layout before construction, after which the team handles permitting, foundation work, framing, and full construction.
“Decks are the core of what we do, and the summer season is when most families decide to build,” said Ryan Rust, owner of OE Decks & Outdoor Living. “Starting every project with a design model lets a homeowner see the space before a single board goes down, which removes a lot of the guesswork.”
Material selection is a central part of the planning process. The company builds with composite and PVC for low-maintenance performance, along with wood options that range from pressure-treated lumber and cedar to exotic hardwoods such as IPE, Tigerwood, and Cumaru. Material choice often comes down to how a deck will be used and how much upkeep a homeowner wants to take on, as well as how the surface holds up to the region’s hot summers and cold winters. The company works with established decking manufacturers including Trex, Fiberon, TimberTech by Azek, Deckorators, Barrette Outdoor Living, MoistureShield, and TruNorth, and uses framing systems from partners such as Fortress Building Products for steel and TimberTech for aluminum.
Decks built by the company are finished with details that are planned into each project rather than added later. Railing options include composite, aluminum, glass, and cable, while deck lighting ranges from step and railing illumination to broader landscape integration, and underdeck and skirting systems complete the structure. Every project carries a five-year workmanship warranty, and material warranties extend up to 50 years depending on the products selected.
While decks anchor the business, OE Decks & Outdoor Living also builds complementary outdoor structures, including pergolas, porches, pavilions, and gazebos, along with fencing in a range of materials. These offerings round out a homeowner’s outdoor project while custom deck craftsmanship remains the company’s primary focus.
The company is based in Waynesville and serves Warren County and the surrounding Southwest Ohio communities along the Dayton and Cincinnati corridor, including Lebanon, Springboro, Mason, and Centerville. A second office in Independence, Kentucky extends its work into Northern Kentucky, with both locations operating under the same standards of design, communication, and construction.
“Most of our work comes from within our own region, and that is by design,” Rust said. “Staying close to home lets the same team manage a project from the first drawing to the final inspection.”
