Our Story
Family Owned and Operated
Lifts of Illinois has been the Braker family’s business in Roanoke, IL for more than 25 years. Jim and Harland Braker purchased the company in 1999, using their extensive construction experience to help people stay in the homes they love, attend the church of their choice, and comfortably access businesses and schools in their community. The next generation, Jay Braker, took the reins in 2017.
Lifts of Illinois features factory-trained installers and is fully certified and licensed in Illinois and Missouri. Jay takes great pride in the fact that his knowledgeable and loyal team have all been with the company at least ten years, so you can count on seeing the same faces time after time.
