KF Landscapes is now Elevate Outdoor

Kohl Fitzmaurice, founder of KF Landscapes, began at age 16 with a purpose of serving friends and family with a tractor, a goal of creating pristine, green landscapes, and a hope of helping out the busy homeowner. Why? Because family is the foundation of Kohl’s heart and work ethic. If he could alleviate a stress or burden for a homeowner, he could gift them with family time. And so mowing lawns and designing hardscapes became a passion for Kohl.
 
While attending college at Lindenwood University in St. Charles, MO, Kohl saw an opportunity to expand his residential business to a commercial one, as well. And his focus moved from maintenance to unique landscape builds. Not only was this new partnership with Lindenwood University a fruitful one of 16+ years, it was the turning point in KF Landscapes business. No matter the job or how large KF Landscapes grew, doing each project excellently was Kohl’s bottom line. 

Same great company - now Elevated.

With 95% of KF Landscapes business consisting of design and build hardscapes, Kohl saw an opportunity to continue serving his loyal customers through maintenance services. That’s when Lawn Champs joined the vision of KF Landscapes future. Lawn Champs was an efficiently run business whose customer renewal rates were above 90%. They mirrored the purpose of KF Landscapes – to serve others excellently. And an exciting merger happened in 2019. 

For the first year, Lawn Champs functioned out of an office near Lindenwood University in St. Charles, MO; KF Landscapes remained in Wentzville, MO, near the General Motors Plant. In 2020, both companies physically merged to the O’Fallon, MO, metro area. And with the new location came the new branding – Elevate Outdoor.
