Immaculate Horse Ranch in Historic Mechanicsburg, PA

In beautiful Mechanicsburg, PA, and the location of Senator Maris Harvey Taylor’s 1900’s hunting cabin is the setting for today’s building showcase. It’s a working ranch with several outbuildings, an indoor riding arena, and horse stalls that were built with AB Martin supplies.

The color theme is bold.  The Scarlet Red and Bright White ABM Panels look sharp.  The skylights on the shingle roof is a unique and practical feature.

To roof the cabin and garage built on the site of Senator Taylor’s hunting cabin, they chose the Textured Colonial Red ABSeam Panel.

Is a metal roof only for agricultural buildings?

December 5, 2024 19 Comments

Years ago, the application for metal roofing was rather limited. Farmers used metal for roofing and siding their barns or chicken houses, and construction crews built with metal on commercial and industrial buildings. It was a cheap solution and fit the need. But because of issues with mold and rust over time, metal wasn’t considered for residential homes. And it just didn’t fit the look most homeowners wanted.
