VINYL SIDING INSTITUTE CERTIFICATION

Once you’ve decided to side a home with vinyl siding, it’s important to know that the quality of the installation job is just as important as choosing a high quality product. Using trained, experienced, and certified professionals will help ensure that your home’s vinyl siding will look great and perform well for years to come.
Each VSI Certified Installer must demonstrate the knowledge and skills to properly install vinyl siding and accessories, based on the industry standard, ASTM D4756. When you hire an installer certified through VSI’s program, you can be confident that he or she knows how to:
- Correctly fasten the siding to allow for vinyl’s normal expansion and contraction properties and keep it straight and secure on the wall.
- Properly prepare the area around doors, windows, and other openings to prevent water infiltration.
- Pay attention to the details that will give your home a beautiful appearance that will last over time.
To become a VSI Certified Installer, candidates
must have a minimum of one year of
experience installing vinyl siding and accessories,
attend VSI’s rigorous course, and pass
the VSI Certified Installer exam (or have three
years of experience and pass the VSI Certified
Installer exam).
