Tell us about your project
Takes about a minute. Your information goes to Wayside Lumber and the builder we connect you with. That's it.
WUI CompliantA new deck comes down to two decisions. We make both easier.
Finding a builder you can trust. You post online, get six names, and can't tell the craftsman from the guy with a truck and a website. Three bids, three different stories, and you're the one carrying the risk if you pick wrong.
Picking a material you won't regret. Wood looks great for one season, then it's yours to babysit: sanding, staining, sealing, splinters. There are better options now, and we'll show you the one worth the money.
We solve both. That's the whole point of this page.
We're not a deck company. We're the yard the deck companies buy from.
That's an advantage you can't get anywhere else. For decades we've watched crews come through our gates every week. We see who orders carefully and who guesses. We see whose jobs go smoothly and whose come back. We know which builders answer the phone, and stand behind their name.
So when you come to us, you're not getting a name off a list. You're getting a builder we've done business with for years and would send to our own homes. If the first fit isn't right, or you just want a second bid to compare, tell us. We'll line up another. That's the benefit of starting with the yard instead of a single contractor.

- No bidding war with six strangers. We point you to the right fit
- Want to compare? We'll get you a second bid. No awkwardness, no starting over.

A yard named after a street
- Founded
- 1967. Jim McVey cashed in two insurance bonds for $15,000 and opened the yard
- The name
- Vi McVey named it after the street they lived on: Wayside Lane
- Generations
- Three. Same family, same name on the building
- Experience
- More than 150 years combined across the team
When Jim died suddenly, his 19-year-old son, also Jim, left college and took over. That was over fifty years ago. We're on the third generation now, still family-owned, still in Rancho Cordova off Highway 50 near Folsom and Sunrise. We tell you this because you're about to trust us with a recommendation. Our name has been on that building for three generations. We're not going to hand you to someone who'd put a dent in it.
Questions we hear every week
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. Free, in your home, no obligation.
Can I come see the material at the yard?
You're welcome to, but honestly the best way to choose is having your builder bring samples to your home, where you can see the colors against your actual house. That's what we'd recommend.
Can I get more than one bid?
Yes. Tell us and we'll connect you with another builder from our network to compare.
How much does a deck cost?
Too many variables to quote honestly on a web page: size, height, railing, stairs, materials. Your builder gives you a real number after seeing the space.
Do I have to use Fiberon?
No. The $500 credit is Fiberon-specific and applies to decks of 500 square feet or more, but your builder will help you find the right material either way.
