Our Story
How Premier Lifts Got Started
Leif Hodgman didn't come from the lift industry. He came from the United States Marine Corps and the oil fields—where discipline, hard work, and showing up when it matters aren't optional.
When he and Tisha launched Premier Lifts in 2019, they brought that same standard with them. No runaround. No disappearing act after the sale. Just honest work, done right, by people who put their name on it.
It hasn't always been a straight line. But every challenge along the way led them to the same place — a family-run operation built on the belief that the Gulf Coast deserves a lift company that actually picks up the phone.
That's Premier Lifts. And Leif and Tisha wouldn't have it any other way.

Why Choose us
Why Customers Choose Premier Lifts
Personal, Hands-On Service
We're the team that shows up. Leif personally handles installations and service calls — you won't be passed off to a subcontractor or a crew you've never met. When something needs attention, the owner is there.
Full-Service Capability
Sales, installation, service, and repair — under one roof. Most lift companies do one or two things. Premier Lifts does it all. From helping you choose the right system to keeping it running years down the road.
Manufacturer Partnerships
Authorized dealers for WC Lifts and Galaxy Lifts — two of the most respected names in the cargo and passenger lift industry. Every system we install is backed by USA manufacturing and industry-leading warranties.
We Service What We Don't Sell
Got a lift that needs service but wasn't installed by us? We'll come take a look. Premier Lifts services all makes and models — because a lift that isn't working safely is a problem regardless of who put it in.
