Siding types we install
Traditional lap (clapboard) siding
The most common residential profile in this part of Pennsylvania. Steel lap siding gives you the classic clapboard look without the maintenance demands of wood — no rot, no repainting, no moisture damage over time. A solid choice for homeowners who want a low-maintenance exterior that holds up through the seasons.
Board and batten siding
Vertical panels with narrow battens covering the seams — a profile that suits farmhouses, modern homes, and new construction throughout the region. Clean lines, a substantial appearance, and a vertical profile that sheds water effectively. We install board and batten siding in Pennsylvania on homes from Gettysburg to Greencastle and on agricultural structures throughout the area.
Agricultural and pole barn siding
For barns, pole buildings, equipment storage, hog facilities, poultry houses, and other farm structures. Steel handles the moisture, animals, and physical use that agricultural buildings face over decades in a way that no other siding material can match. If you farm in the Chambersburg area, the Gettysburg corridor, or the rural townships in between, we know what these buildings need.
Steel soffit and fascia
Deteriorating wood soffit and fascia is one of the most common deferred maintenance issues on older homes in South Central Pennsylvania. Replacing it with steel solves the problem permanently — no repainting, no rot, no pest access at the roofline. We install soffit and fascia as part of complete exterior packages or as a standalone project.
Why steel holds up better than the alternatives
Most siding options have tradeoffs that compound over time:
Vinyl
Fades and becomes brittle over 10–15 years. Cracks and warps under temperature stress. Poor impact resistance.
Wood
Requires ongoing painting, caulking, and rot repair throughout its life. Vulnerable to moisture and insects.
Fiber cement
Heavy, expensive to install, and needs periodic repainting. Absorbs moisture at cut edges if not carefully sealed.
Steel
Doesn't warp, rot, or crack. Handles hail and wind-driven debris. Requires no painting and very little upkeep. Lasts decades.
Steel siding doesn’t have these problems. It doesn’t warp, rot, or crack. It holds up to hail and wind-driven debris. It requires no painting and very little maintenance. And it lasts decades without the material degradation that affects every other option.
Owner on site for every siding project
Every full siding project at Appalachian Exteriors is led personally by the owner as the primary installer. We’re a family-owned operation, not a large crew company — and that means every job gets direct attention and one person accountable for the result.
Every full replacement comes with a workmanship warranty in addition to the manufacturer’s material warranty.
