A small company that cares

By Dani Sheehan.

Everest Systems is a dedicated partner to contractors, driven by their passion for quality and family oriented culture.

As a family owned company dedicated to serving contractors, Everest Systems operates with a clear mission: to provide high-quality, reliable products while maintaining a level of service that larger corporations simply can’t match.  

What makes Everest different? It starts with their approach to business. Everest is primarily direct-to-contractor, meaning the best way to access their premium products is by working directly with them. This ensures they have complete control over production, formulation and delivery – guaranteeing quality and consistency.

Their team also prioritizes responsiveness. Their nimble, flexible operations allow them to set daily production schedules, ensuring you get what you need, when you need it. Every aspect of their business is centered around fulfilling orders and supporting you in the field. Everest’s goal is simple: to get things done for their contractors.

Innovation meets customer focus

Everest Systems also prides itself on its small-business advantage. They don’t see you as just another account – they see you as a partner. Their team listens, collaborates and provides real solutions, making a genuine difference for the people who rely on their products. This customer-first mindset is reflected in how Everest builds relationships.  

Many of their sales team members started as contractors themselves. They’ve used roofing products firsthand, which means they understand the challenges faced in the field. In a recent episode of CoatingsCast, Gabe Goepfert, Everest’s VP of sales and marketing, explained, “Our goal here at Everest is to make the contractor successful. We try and approach everything from that version – what are their needs and what things can we put in their hands to make a difference?”

Unlike most companies, Everest is led by a true chemist. Owner John Linnell’s knowledge allows Everest Systems to be highly innovative, balancing cutting-edge technology with practical, contractor-friendly applications.

“We have the sweet spot,” Gabe continued. “We’re not so big that we lose touch with our customers, but we have the experience and technical knowledge that larger companies bring to the market.”

Everest Systems provide solutions that work, backed by a team that understands the industry from the ground up.
