Meet the owner

Hello, I'm Gabriel Freitas, founder of Elevate Bay. For me, a backyard is where life truly happens. It’s the space where I, my wife Thais, and our two wonderful children connect, play, and grow together.

I founded this company with the belief that every Bay Area family deserves an outdoor space that is just as beautiful and functional. My passion is creating these personal oases where other families can make their own lasting memories.

My journey in this industry began over six years ago, not at a desk, but in the field with hands-on work. This practical foundation gave me a deep understanding of what it truly takes to build a quality, durable project from the ground up. I carried this real-world knowledge with me as I grew into roles as a Design Consultant and Project Manager for one of the region's leading hardscaping firms.

Throughout my experience, I saw a common challenge for homeowners: a frustrating disconnect between a brilliant design idea and a reliable, high-quality execution. Knowing how valuable family time is, I founded Elevate Bay with a clear mission: to make the renovation process itself as seamless and stress-free as possible. We combine creative 3D design with meticulous project management to offer a single, transparent path to the backyard of your dreams.

I love solving the unique puzzle each property presents and creating truly personal spaces for other families. I look forward to the opportunity to hear your family's vision and help you elevate your outdoor living.
