Vinyl siding installation is more than fastening panels to a wall. A proper installation includes the right substrate preparation, moisture barrier, correct fastening technique, and trim detailing that keeps water out and the system performing for decades. We handle every part of the process from removal of old cladding through to final trim and caulking.
We install vinyl siding on new construction, as a full replacement or partial upgrades on existing homes. Before any panel goes up, we assess the wall sheathing condition, install house wrap or rigid insulation where required, depending on the wall assembly, and ensure the substrate is flat, dry, and structurally sound. Every panel is fastened with the correct clearance to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, which is the most common source of buckling and warping on improperly installed vinyl systems.
Faded, cracked, or impact-damaged siding that is beyond spot repair needs a full siding replacement. We remove the existing cladding, inspect the house wrap and sheathing underneath for moisture damage or rot, and install new vinyl siding that matches your home's profile and current exterior color scheme.
Vinyl siding can be installed with two types of insulation systems. Some vinyl panels include factory-bonded foam backing, which adds a thin layer of insulation and improves panel rigidity. A more effective option is installing rigid insulation backer boards over the wall before the siding, creating a continuous insulation layer that improves energy efficiency and reduces thermal bridging. For many Toronto and GTA homes, insulation boards provide better overall thermal performance and moisture control than foam-backed panels alone.
Vinyl siding looks unfinished without properly installed corner posts, J-channel, window and door trim, and starter strips. We install all trim components as part of the full siding job so the finished result is clean and watertight at every edge, opening, and transition point on the exterior.
Century Aluminum is a family-owned exterior contractor with over 15 years of experience installing vinyl, aluminum and specialty siding on residential and commercial properties across Toronto, Mississauga, Oakville, Vaughan and the GTA. Over 50 percent of Canadian homeowners choose vinyl siding, and we install it to the standard that ensures it performs for the full 20 to 30 years its material life allows. Every installation is backed by our 3-year service warranty and a strong manufacturer warranty up to lifetime limited warranty.
Vinyl siding is one of the most popular choices in the GTA for a reason — but the quality of the installation determines how well it holds up over time.
Vinyl siding never needs painting, sealing, or staining. It can be cleaned with a hose and mild detergent every few years. Unlike wood, it does not rot, crack from moisture, or attract insects and pests. For busy homeowners in Toronto, that matters.
Century Aluminum has a lead installer certified through the Vinyl Siding Institute (VSI), reflecting hands-on training in proper installation techniques and industry standards.
Vinyl siding is available in dozens of colours and profiles, including horizontal lap styles like Driftwood and Sequoia, vertical Board and Batten, and Shake textures that replicate the look of wood without the maintenance.
Insulated vinyl siding adds continuous foam insulation to the full exterior wall, which standard batt insulation between studs cannot achieve. In Toronto's climate, can noticeably reduce heat loss, particularly on older homes with minimal wall insulation.
New vinyl siding is consistently one of the highest-return exterior upgrades for Toronto homeowners preparing for resale. A clean, updated exterior in a current colour attracts buyers before they step inside and reduces objections about deferred maintenance.
Worn, faded, or cracked siding loses more than curb appeal. It loses its ability to keep moisture, cold air, and pests out of your wall assembly. Get a free estimate from Century Aluminum and find out what new vinyl siding will cost for your home.

With proper installation and routine cleaning, vinyl siding typically lasts 20 to 30 years in the GTA. Toronto’s freeze-thaw cycles and UV exposure are the two factors that age vinyl fastest. Insulated vinyl siding and higher-gauge panels generally perform at the upper end of that range because the foam backing adds dimensional stability that reduces cracking and warping over time.
