Metal Roofing Contractor Serving Adams County, Pennsylvania
Family-owned metal roofing and exterior contractor serving homeowners and agricultural property owners throughout Adams County.
We're local — born and raised in this part of Pennsylvania — and we work primarily in the communities around Gettysburg, New Oxford, Biglerville, Fairfield, and Orrtanna.
Metal and steel roofing is our specialty. We install ABM steel panels, manufactured in Pennsylvania and sourced locally, on everything from single-family homes to large agricultural structures. Every full replacement project is led personally by the owner, on site from start to finish.
Why metal roofing makes sense in Adams County
Adams County homeowners deal with a full range of weather — heavy snow loads in winter, summer storms rolling through the Cumberland Valley, and the freeze-thaw cycles that are hard on traditional roofing materials. Metal roofing handles all of it better than asphalt shingles:
- Steel panels shed snow and ice faster, reducing ice dam formation and structural load in winter
- Metal holds up to high winds and wind-driven debris without losing individual pieces the way shingles can
- No granule loss, no cracking, no moss — the maintenance headaches that affect asphalt shingles aren't a factor with steel
- A properly installed metal roof in Adams County should last 40–70+ years
For the many agricultural and farm properties in Adams County — barns, pole buildings, equipment storage, and grain facilities — metal roofing isn't just a better option. It's often the only practical one.

Metal roofing for Adams County homes
Whether you're replacing an aging shingle roof on a ranch home outside Gettysburg, upgrading a farmhouse that's been in the family for generations, or putting a new roof on a new construction project, we approach every residential job the same way: use quality ABM panels, install them correctly, and don't cut corners on the details that matter — underlayment, flashing, fastening patterns.
Metal roofing for Adams County farms
Adams County has a strong agricultural heritage, and we've worked on a wide range of farm structures throughout the area. Barns, pole buildings, equipment sheds, hog and poultry facilities — structures that need to work reliably for decades without becoming maintenance problems.
Metal roofing on agricultural buildings is where the math is especially clear. A barn roof that lasts 50 years and never needs attention is worth significantly more than a cheaper option that needs replacement in 20. We understand how farm properties work and plan our work accordingly.
Owner-led installation — what it actually means
Most roofing companies in Adams County send a crew to your home. The owner might visit for the estimate and check in on larger jobs, but the people doing the work are employees or subcontractors you haven't met.
At Appalachian Exteriors, the owner is on site and personally involved as the primary installer on every full replacement. That's not a marketing statement — it's how the business is structured. It means consistent quality, direct accountability, and a single person who takes responsibility for the finished product.
