“Our message is: ‘Exceptional spaces, extraordinary memories.’ We take care of your property like we own it.”
Tony Meyer, chief sales and marketing officer of Elevate Outdoor in St. Louis, says the outdoor design, build and maintenance company wants its clientele to “imagine what their lives could be like. We lay the foundation for families to lead fulfilling lives. The home is the space where the family resides, the space where the family makes memories,” he says. “Our role in that is to help make sure they aren’t worried about what the space looks like, feels like or how it’s maintained.”
For more than 25 years, Elevate Outdoor has helped homeowners love their yard, entertain their friends and family and reduce their stress in upkeep. The entire team shares a unified purpose: to elevate the quality of life for their customers and coworkers and enhance the growth of their own character.
Chief Executive Officer Kohl Fitzmaurice founded his business in 1997. Over the years, he built a strong customer base with fierce loyalty and creative vision. “Family is at the heart of our workmanship,” he says, adding that he has had the privilege of growing his business from scratch, and while the trends are constantly changing, his mission does not.
“We strive to elevate the quality of life for our customers, and because of that investment, it has enhanced the growth of my character along with the character of our Elevate Outdoor team.”
Tony welcomes clients to partner with the Elevate Outdoor team for their next outdoor landscape project to “level up their yards.”
Elevate Outdoor offers the full package of services for their clients’ outdoor design, build and maintenance. “We use the term flywheel,” Tony says. “It’s like a holistic approach with concierge-level services for everything you need for the design of your outdoor spaces and maintaining them.”
Tony says people know their own spaces. “They are their castle grounds. We make sure they are taken care of properly.”
Many of Elevate Outdoor’s customers travel frequently or work out of town and/or entertain a lot. The company guides them through a non-stressful construction. “It’s a seamless integration with maintenance over time,” Tony says. “We’re removing the anxiety of designing, building and maintaining their outdoor spaces. We’re sifting the chaff. We’re worrying about managing the property so they don’t have to. They just get to make memories.”
Clients can give direction to the Elevate Outdoor team or let them do it all. “We want to fuel their imaginations,” Tony says. “They can have all the input that they want or none at all. We will come to you with the strategy and the plan.”
Elevate Outdoor is rooted in family. The company is a family- and friend-owned business with a united purpose that drives it each day. “We are on mission to serve you and your family,” Tony says. “Our passion is to enhance the house that you’ve made into a home by transforming your outdoor living space. Not only will our services add value to your home, we promise it will add value to your life. After all, the memories are what make us, and that’s an invaluable gift.”
Elevate Outdoor is based in St. Louis, but also has locations in Kansas City and the Adirondack Mountain Region. The company also has a pool division, Elevate Pools.
