Communities we serve in rural Adams County

We work regularly throughout the rural townships and communities of northern and western Adams County, including:

Biglerville

Biglerville sits at the center of Pennsylvania’s apple country, surrounded by orchards and agricultural operations that have been working this land for generations. The properties here — farmhouses, outbuildings, cold storage structures, and residential homes — deal with real weather exposure on open ground. We install metal roofing and steel siding throughout Biglerville and Menallen Township.

Cashtown

Cashtown and the surrounding area along Route 30 west of Gettysburg sits at a natural elevation change where weather comes in hard from the west. Properties in this area include a mix of older residential homes, agricultural structures, and rural acreage. We work in Cashtown and Hamilton Township regularly for both residential and farm property owners.

Orrtanna

Orrtanna is small and rural, surrounded by farmland and orchards in the western part of Adams County. Many properties here are agricultural — barns, equipment storage, fruit packing operations — alongside the residential homes that have been in families for decades. We serve Orrtanna and Hamiltonban Township for metal roofing, steel siding, and exterior repairs.

Aspers and Arendtsville

Aspers and Arendtsville sit north of Biglerville in the heart of the orchard belt. Properties here are predominantly agricultural with a mix of residential homes on rural acreage. We install metal roofing and steel siding throughout this area and understand the agricultural property requirements specific to orchard country.

Other rural communities

We also serve Bendersville, Wenksville, Idaville, Bendersville, York Springs, and the rural townships throughout northern Adams County. If you are not sure whether we cover your specific location, give us a call. We are flexible for the right project.

Why metal roofing makes sense for rural Adams County properties

The properties throughout Biglerville, Cashtown, Orrtanna, and the surrounding townships have specific demands that favor metal roofing over asphalt shingles. Open ground exposure means higher wind loads. Agricultural environments mean moisture, corrosive conditions, and physical use that shorten the life of softer roofing materials. And the practical reality of rural property ownership is that you want a roof that works without becoming a recurring maintenance problem.

• Lifespan: 40–70+ years with proper installation. A metal roof put on a farmhouse near Biglerville today should outlast the working life of the property without replacement.
• Snow and ice performance: Northern Adams County gets significant snowfall. Metal panels shed snow faster than shingles, reducing structural load and ice dam formation on older structures.
• Agricultural durability: Steel handles the moisture, corrosive gases, and physical exposure of farm buildings in a way asphalt shingles simply cannot over the long term.
• Low maintenance: No granule loss, no moss on north-facing slopes, no individual shingles cracking and needing replacement. Rural property owners have enough to manage without adding roofing maintenance to the list.
• Warranties: Lifetime material warranties on steel panels, plus our workmanship warranty on every full replacement.

Metal roofing for agricultural buildings in rural Adams County

Farm structures throughout the Biglerville, Cashtown, and Orrtanna area — barns, apple storage, equipment sheds, pole buildings, and outbuildings — represent a significant portion of the roofing work we do. Agricultural buildings have different requirements than residential jobs:

• Large open spans that require correct panel run lengths and fastening patterns
• Ventilation requirements for livestock, produce storage, and equipment
• Exposure to moisture, fertilizers, and corrosive environments that demand material durability
• The practical need to work around farm operations, harvest schedules, and livestock

We have installed metal roofing on agricultural structures throughout Adams County for over a decade. We understand orchard country, we understand farm schedules, and we plan our work accordingly. A barn roof near Biglerville that lasts 50 years with no attention is worth significantly more over time than a cheaper option that needs replacement in 20.

Steel siding for rural properties

The same farms and rural homes that benefit from metal roofing are strong candidates for steel siding. Board and batten steel siding suits the architectural character of Adams County’s rural properties — farmhouses, bank barns, and outbuildings — and delivers the same low-maintenance, high-durability performance as steel roofing.

We install steel siding in board and batten, traditional lap, agricultural panel, and soffit and fascia profiles throughout rural Adams County. Whether you are replacing failing wood siding on a farmhouse outside Orrtanna or putting new panels on a pole building near Cashtown, we handle it.

Owner on site for every job

Most roofing contractors serving the Gettysburg and Adams County area send crews to rural jobs. The owner handles estimates and checks in on larger work, but the people doing the installation are often employees or subcontractors you have not met.

At Appalachian Exteriors, the owner is the primary installer on every full replacement — on site, hands on, from start to finish. The person who visits your property in Biglerville or Cashtown and gives your estimate is the same person installing your roof. That is not standard in this industry. It is how we operate.
