The Raise story
How South Florida's most respected local landscaping teams became one company with one standard of care.
South Florida's most trusted landscapers, now one company
Raise began with a simple belief: the properties that shape how people live, work, heal, learn, and gather deserve a higher standard of care.
We built Raise in South Florida by bringing together respected local landscaping brands and empowering the leaders who made them great. Raise is our commitment to raising the bar for consistent, high-quality landscape care.
We preserve local expertise and invest in the people and systems that drive consistent outcomes. Today Raise serves Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and the Florida Keys, supporting premier properties across the region.
Big enough to deliver, local enough to care
Raise gives our divisions the muscle of an enterprise, including equipment, systems and storm-season capacity, without taking away what made them worth joining: the crews, the relationships and the pride in the work.

Respect every property like it's our own
Every bed, every edge, every visit. Nothing gets waved through because nobody was looking.
Act safely and professionally
Trained crews, clean job sites, and safe work practices on every property, every day.
Improve every day
We measure our work, learn from it, and keep raising the bar on ourselves.
Serve with urgency
When something needs attention we are on it fast, with clear ownership and follow-through.
Exceed expectations
Inspection-ready is the floor we start from, not the goal we aim at.
Raise leadership
Raise is led by seasoned operators and local managers who run the work where it happens. We set one Raise standard across every site, every team and every brand.
