MEF Services didn’t begin with a big investment or a full team. It began with a dream, a toolbox, and strong determination.

My name is Manuel Goncalves. I came to the United States at 19 years old with the goal of building something that could transform not only spaces, but lives.

I started in Orlando, taking on small jobs and trusting that if I delivered quality work, each client would become my best form of advertising. And that’s exactly what happened.

What started as a one-person project has grown into a company with a dedicated team and a community of loyal clients who continue to trust our work.

At MEF Services, we continue to transform outdoor spaces with the same heart and purpose that started it all: responsibility, quality, and a human approach.

Every project is a way to honor the journey, the effort, and the people who helped make it all possible.

To be recognized regionally for excellence in designing and delivering high-quality outdoor spaces, becoming a trusted reference in our industry, known for our values, humanity, and continuous growth.
