Comprehensive Siding Solutions Tailored for Toronto Homes

Westwood Siding is your go-to expert for all types of exterior cladding solutions. Whether you prefer the timeless appeal of wood siding, vinyl siding, the modern durability of aluminum siding, or the versatile design options of fiber cement siding, we have you covered. Here’s a breakdown of the services we offer:

James Hardie Fiber Cement Siding

For homeowners seeking superior durability and an upscale look, James Hardie siding is the gold standard.

This type of fiber cement siding mimics the appearance of wood siding, clapboard siding, or even cedar shingles, all while offering excellent resistance to weather, cracking, and mildew.

It’s also a fantastic option for homes prone to extreme weather conditions or areas where fire resistance is a priority.

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl siding remains one of the most popular choices for Toronto homeowners due to its affordability, durability, and low-maintenance requirements. Insulated vinyl siding goes a step further by improving your home’s energy efficiency, helping reduce heating and cooling costs throughout the year.

With a wide array of colors and textures available, vinyl siding ensures you don’t have to compromise on style.

Wood Siding

The natural beauty of wood siding, including options like cedar shake, board siding, and cedar shingles, adds a classic charm to any home. Wood’s unique grain and texture give homes a warm, inviting appearance.

When properly maintained, wood siding stands up well to the elements and can even be painted or stained to refresh your home’s look over time.

Aluminum Siding

Durable, rust-resistant, and lightweight, aluminum siding offers homeowners a sleek, modern look that stands the test of time. It’s especially well-suited for Toronto’s harsh winters, resisting warping, denting, and other forms of damage.

Available in a variety of finishes, aluminum siding is an excellent option for homeowners seeking durability with minimal maintenance.

Eavestroughs, Soffits, and Fascia

These essential components help manage water drainage, improve ventilation, and protect your home’s structural integrity.

Properly installed eavestroughs ensure rainwater flows away from your foundation, while soffits and fascia prevent moisture buildup and improve attic airflow.

Planning and Preparation

Clear Communication at Every Step

Explanation of the Process: Breaking down the installation into clear steps shows you what to expect at each stage, reducing confusion or surprises.
Transparency: Sharing the details (e.g., measuring, choosing materials, weather barrier installation) allows you to have confidence in the quality of our work.

Measure and Calculate: Accurately measure the exterior of your home to determine the amount of siding material needed. Account for corners, trims, and waste.
Choose the Right Material: Select siding material (e.g., wood, vinyl, fiber cement) based on your climate, style preferences, and budget.
Gather Tools and Supplies: Prepare tools like a hammer, circular saw, chalk line, measuring tape, level, and nails or screws.
Inspect the Exterior: Check the home’s exterior for damage, such as rot or cracks, and repair them before proceeding.
Remove Old Siding: If applicable, safely remove the old siding and dispose of it properly.

Install a Weather-Resistant Barrier

Apply House Wrap or Felt Paper: Cover the entire surface with a weather-resistant barrier to protect against moisture and drafts.
Seal Openings: Use flashing tape to seal around windows, doors, and other openings.

Install Starter Strips

Mark a Level Line: Use a chalk line to create a level guide at the base of the wall.
Attach Starter Strips: Nail or screw the starter strips along the chalk line to ensure the first row of siding is straight and secure.

Siding Installation

Wood Siding Installation

Pre-Finish the Boards: Paint, stain, or seal the wood siding before installation to ensure even coverage.

Leave Expansion Gaps: Space boards slightly to allow for expansion and contraction due to temperature changes.

Nail Securely: Use corrosion-resistant nails and avoid overdriving them to prevent damage to the wood.

Vinyl or Fiber Cement Siding

Start at the Bottom: Attach the first row of siding to the starter strip, locking it in place securely.

Work Upward: Overlap each row slightly for proper water drainage.

Check Alignment: Use a level to ensure rows are straight as you work your way up the wall.

Install Trim and Flashing

Corners and Edges: Attach corner posts and trim pieces to create a clean finish at the edges.

Window and Door Flashing: Add flashing and J-channel trim around windows and doors to prevent water infiltration.

Secure Final Pieces

Top Course Installation: Cut the final row of siding to fit snugly under the eaves or soffits, ensuring a neat finish.

Nail or Snap in Place: Use proper fasteners to secure the top course without gaps.

Inspect and Clean

Check for Gaps and Loose Panels: Walk around the house to ensure all panels are secure and there are no visible gaps.

Seal Gaps: Use caulk to seal small gaps around trim and flashing.

Clean the Surface: Remove dust and debris from the siding for a polished appearance.

Inspect the Grounds: Check the work site ensuring it is clean and nothing is left behind.
