The Cold Truth About Roofing with Kristin Westover

Welcome back to Cool Times — where we talk all things cool in the cold storage construction industry. And in true March fashion, we’re continuing the celebration of Women in Construction Month 💪

In this episode, we sit down with Kristin Westover, National Accounts Manager at GAF, who’s bringing serious expertise (and energy) to the cold storage roofing world. With a background in civil engineering and building envelope consulting, Kristin breaks down why roofing in cold storage isn’t just important… it’s mission-critical.

From icicles and condensation nightmares to training roofers across the country, Kristin gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to build high-performing facilities — and why the smallest detail can make or break a project.

Plus… we get into skiing, beach life, and yes — bourbon on the chairlift 🥃

Episode Highlights:

❄️ Why the roof-to-wall interface is the #1 failure point in cold storage
❄️ The real cause of condensation — and how to design against it
❄️ How GAF is elevating the industry through hands-on contractor training
❄️ The shift toward energy efficiency, sustainability, and longer-lasting roofs
