LOCAL VINYL SIDING PROFESSIONALS NAMED
VINYL SIDING INSTITUTE CERTIFIED INSTALLERS
Washington, D.C., December 17, 2007 – Brian Schmalz, and David Cloyd both of Square Deal Siding Company located in Kenner, Lousiana have received third-party verification of their vinyl siding installation skills and knowledge and were named a Certified Installer through program sponsored by the Vinyl Siding Institute (VSI).
Through the VSI Certified Installer Program, a national quality certification program for vinyl siding installers, the above have completed a rigorous course of study and examination on the proper installation techniques for vinyl siding, soffit and accessories, as verified by an independent certification firm, Architectural Testing, Inc. and based on ASTM D4756.
“The VSI Certified Installer Program was created to recognize top quality vinyl siding installers,” said VSI President Jery Y. Huntley. “By passing our course and test, Brian and David have demonstrated the knowledge and skills to install quality, durable vinyl siding.”
VSI recognizes an individual as a Certified Installer if he or she has at least one year of experience and passes a course and examination on correct installation techniques. Installers with more than three years of experience may qualify to take the test without the course. Certified Installers receive an identification badge and are listed on VSI’s Web site, www.vinylsiding.org.
