Fort Hunt houses, and what re-siding them involves
Fort Hunt grew after World War II. Hollin Hall Village’s one-level homes went up from 1948 and Waynewood’s colonials and split-levels from 1957. Most of Hollin Hills, Charles Goodman’s mid-century modern neighborhood, lies here too.
On houses this age, we strip the old siding to the sheathing, replace any rot, wrap the walls, and then install the new siding.
What siding suits a Fort Hunt house?
For colonials and split-levels, quality vinyl with Alside’s Double Lifetime Warranty or James Hardie fiber cement with its 30-year non-prorated, transferable warranty are the usual choices.
In Hollin Hills, painted vertical wood is the original siding. We install vinyl and James Hardie, not wood. Either one is a change of material, so the Design Review Committee sees it first. Our siding page compares every option.
Do you need a permit or approval to replace siding in Fort Hunt?
Usually not a permit. Fairfax County lists replacing roof shingles, re-siding with similar material and direct window replacement as work that needs no permit. Fort Hunt has Alexandria mailing addresses but is unincorporated Fairfax County.
- Hollin Hills: it is a Fairfax County Historic Overlay District, so any work that needs a building permit also needs the county Architectural Review Board’s approval. The neighborhood’s Design Review Committee separately reviews exterior changes under its deed covenants. Only in-kind replacement with the same exact materials, profiles and details is exempt from committee review, so vinyl or fiber cement over wood siding is reviewed. We supply the product data sheets and manufacturer color names. We work closely with the committees, we have a great relationship with plenty of HOAs in the area, and it has never been a problem for us.
- Structural changes: if the job grows to include new or larger openings, that part needs a building permit.
