Pressure Treated Wood

At Wayside, we believe in offering only the best—that’s why we carry premium-grade pressure-treated lumber, ideal for decks, fences, and all your outdoor building projects. Our lumber is designed to withstand the elements and maintain its integrity for years to come. To ensure the highest quality, we store it under cover in our warehouse, protecting it from direct sunlight and weather exposure.

We carry the right pressure-treated lumber for the job—offering both Above-Ground and Ground-Contact options to meet your needs.

Above-Ground Pressure-Treated Lumber for framing projects, ideal for use in dry, well-drained areas above ground.

Ground-Contact Pressure-Treated Lumber, ideal for decks, fences, and other outdoor structures that require long-lasting durability and direct contact with soil or moisture.
