#WeAreSouthern

We’ve been serving customers throughout the Carolinas and Virginia for over 70 years, from our humble beginnings in Greensboro, North Carolina, to becoming the region’s leading independent elevator service provider. Our determination to excel with a proactive, can-do attitude guides our operations and service in everything we do. 

At Southern Elevator, we follow the “We Are Southern” mindset that inspires everything we do at Southern Elevator, from how we serve our customers to how we interact with our employees, suppliers, and partners. We’re committed to doing things right the first time and promise to provide open and honest communication and solutions, whether easy or difficult.

Honesty is the only policy at Southern Elevator.
While we strive to complete a job on the first visit, we will immediately and transparently communicate any additional work or costs directly to the customer.
We understand how much our customers depend on their elevators, so when we make a commitment, we stand by it.
Southern Elevator does not have a remote call center; each phone call goes directly to a real person on our team. Should a problem arise, we’re only a call away.
We respond right away to any emergency or critical maintenance issue.
Our focus is on service and relationship-building. Many of our customers remain long-term partners for repair or maintenance needs.
Every Southern Elevator mechanic is state-licensed and fully certified by the National Elevator Industry Education Program (NEIEP).
Our entire team is dependable, trustworthy, dedicated, and highly skilled, with an average of 20 years of experience working on a range of elevators.
We treat our employees as more than numbers; we care about each individual at our company and encourage them to share ideas, work as a team, and continue to learn and develop their skills.
