You just watched us take an elevator apart. That's how we diagnose, service, and modernize every unit we touch — Otis, Schindler, Kone, ThyssenKrupp, and every brand in between. Houston-owned, owner-operated, licensed and insured.
Preventative maintenance for Houston buildings of every size. Written line-item proposal with every quote — no "call for pricing" runaround.
Need help choosing a plan? Give us a call at 832-592-3981 and we'll walk you through it.
Both plans are strictly preventative maintenance — repair parts and labor are quoted separately, line-item, on a per-incident basis. Quarterly pricing is billed once per quarter; monthly pricing is billed each month. Actual price depends on equipment age, elevator count, and required scope. Every quote is a written line-item proposal — no obligation.
Most property managers call us after one too many missed callbacks. Here's what changes the day you move the contract.
Same scope, same visit cadence — we'll beat any national contract. Send your current proposal and we'll read it line-by-line within 24 hours.
Call any hour, get a human. We dispatch before sending confirmation texts. Average arrival for unscheduled emergencies is well under 60 minutes.
Every technician on your building has decades of hands-on experience with the equipment in your hoistway. No apprentices thrown at your emergency. 25+ years across Otis, Schindler, Kone, ThyssenKrupp, Dover, Westinghouse, Fujitec, and Mitsubishi — earned in machine rooms, not seminars.
One owner, one accountable phone number. No call-center routing, no Tier-1 screening — you talk to the person responsible for fixing your elevator.
Houston-area property managers and facilities directors on what working with Arise Elevators is actually like.
"We have 3 buildings scattered across Houston, and any time we need help, Arise is there. We're stuck in a Schindler maintenance contract but I refuse to work with them. Our company serves over 150 vendors, and Arise is in our top 3 to work with — transparent on pricing, and they go above and beyond every time."

Broad Property Management · 3 Houston buildings"Arise has been our elevator company for the last year and I could not be happier. Always prompt and there when we need help. Sometimes Fares even comes out and fixes the elevator on the house. I have no worries about the elevators in the building anymore."
E.
Director of Maintenance
Commercial office · Houston"We had TKE and even tried Schindler — working with the major companies is really tough because they don't prioritize us at all. Since we're only one elevator, we feel like the last on their list, even though we paid for the highest plan. Arise answers all of my calls. I talk straight to Fares or the technician and they explain everything clearly. It gives me a real sense of ease knowing the elevator is in good hands."

Single-elevator commercial · Houston"Aziz remodeled our elevators and we love having him here. Even though he's based in Houston, we've never had any issues — his work remodeling them was perfect."

Modernization · Austin, TX"Houston building owners kept telling us the same story — the elevator doesn't need a rocket scientist, it needs a pro who'll pick up the phone. So that's what we do."

Yes. Most of our new customers came to us mid-contract. Send us your current proposal and we'll tell you in writing whether you're overpaying, what's missing, and when you can switch without penalty.
Otis, Schindler, Kone, ThyssenKrupp, Fujitec, Mitsubishi, Dover, Westinghouse, plus most legacy controllers. 25+ years of hands-on experience across all of them.
On quarterly visits: Standard starts from $150/elevator/month (billed quarterly), Premium from $220. On monthly visits: Standard from $180, Premium from $250. Pricing scales with equipment age, elevator count, and scope. You'll get a line-item proposal, not a number over the phone.
Most Houston buildings — small office, low-rise residential, light commercial — are well-served by quarterly preventative visits. It meets code, catches the same issues, and saves you ~$30/elevator/month. Monthly visits are the right call for high-traffic buildings: hospitals, hotels, busy high-rise residential, anywhere the elevator runs hard. If you're not sure, we'll tell you which one fits when we walk the building.
Yes. Premium customers get one annual TDLR inspection per elevator included — we book it, run it, file the paperwork, and hand you the compliance report. Third-party inspections normally run $300+ per elevator, so on a 4-elevator building that's $1,200+ a year you're not paying out of pocket.
Average arrival inside the Beltway is under 60 minutes, day or night. Premium contracts get a 15-minute callback SLA — a technician, not an answering service.
Yes. Texas-licensed elevator contractor — commercial liability + auto insurance + workers' comp on every tech. We'll attach full COIs with any proposal on request.
Fair question. We're a two-technician shop with a documented on-call rotation. Calls are answered 24/7 by whoever is on, and the person who picks up has the authority to dispatch, adjust schedules, and authorize repairs — no "I'll have to check with…" loop.
Our free 90-second health check pulls your real TDLR inspection status from public records, scores your program out of 100, and flags the risks costing you the most money. No call required. No sales pitch. Just a real diagnostic.
