Composite Decking Built for Bay Area Living
Composite decking is the go-to choice for homeowners who want the look of wood without the necessary maintenance of sanding and staining. Today’s composite boards have fantastic warranties and are manufactured to resist fading, staining, and moisture, making them a smart fit for foggy Peninsula mornings and hot East Bay afternoons. We stock both composite and PVC decking from Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon in a range of colors, textures, fire safety ratings, and price points, so you can match your budget and local code requirements to your home’s style.

Natural Wood Decking With Lasting Character
If nothing beats the warmth of real wood for you, our natural decking options deliver:
- Humboldt redwood, a California classic with natural resistance to decay
- Ipe and Batu hardwoods for exceptional density and durability
- Thermory thermally modified wood for stability without chemical treatment
- Moso bamboo decking for a sustainable, modern look
- Western red cedar, a timeless look with natural resistance to decay
Our team can walk you through how each species weathers, what upkeep it needs, and how it compares to composite over the life of your deck.
Deck Railing, Framing, and Hardware
A great deck is more than its surface boards. We supply high quality deck framing material in both traditional pressure treated or fire rated steel. Pair your decking with railing systems from Atlantis, Fortress, TimberTech, Wild Hog, and Fiberon, then finish the job with hidden fasteners and all the right hardware your project calls for. Whether you are looking for cable rail, aluminum rail, composite rail, or steel rail, Dolan’s has you covered. Do you want some LED light fixtures and accents incorporated in your railing? We’ve got that too. Having everything from one supplier keeps your materials compatible and your project on schedule.

Bay Area builders count on Dolan’s for consistent stock, knowledgeable staff, and fast answers. Our Professionals team helps contractors plan material lists, compare product lines, and keep jobs moving from framing to final railing.

Frequently asked questions
It depends on your priorities. Composite and PVC need less maintenance and resist fading and moisture, but can get hot to the touch on warm sunny days if the deck isn’t shaded. While natural wood offers authentic grain and can often be refinished, it stays cooler to the touch for those hot barefoot barbecue days. We’ll help you compare both side by side.
Measure your deck’s square footage, then add about 10% for cuts and waste. Bring your measurements to any showroom, and we’ll help you build an accurate material list.
