Arad LLC

Marius did not follow up with the work. He came over, saw the project and said he could do it. Sent a couple of text messages but never came up with a bid despite my requests. Wasted my time.

ARAD was great to deal with. Marius modified upper cabinet so new microwave would fit perfectly. Figured a way for me to use existing doors. No new doors needed! Knows what he's doing. Friendly, always responds to texts, brings all woodworking tools (trailer full) to do the job right. Saved me money :)

Marius did an awesome job and was quick thorough and professional. He did not damage my appliance garage which needed to removed for a new countertop installation. He did a great job.

He was great, there when he said he would be and finished promptly. His price was good and he was very much a perfectionist.

I spoke with Marius on the phone and he guided me through the process to fix my problem, Am grateful for his expert advise, he verbally guided me through the process. Thank you very much.

My husband and I were unhappy with the existing crown and baseboards in our kitchen. We have an older home, so the ceilings were uneven and the crown/baseboards were uneven as well, making for an unfinished look. We had several trades come to look at the issue and nobody had a solution. By the time Marius came to look, we had already accepted the fact that we were just going to have to live with an uneven crown based on what other trades said. Fortunately for us, we finally found the right guy for the job! Marius assured us that he would make the crown and baseboards look perfect and would cheat the uneven ceiling and provided several options to make us feel comfortable accepting him for the job. He started on time, on the day he said he would be there, and finished on time. We could not be more happy with the results! Our kitchen looks beautiful and finished and you can't even tell our ceilings are uneven. He also added a custom strip of reclaimed wood in the kitchen that turned out beautifully. I don't want to give away any of his secrets, so just hire him and I promise you won't be disappointed! He definitely is an expert in his trade and we will be using him in all of our carpentry projects going forward.

I don't think i have enough words to explain how wonderful Marius was! We had torn out our old baseboards and carpet and purchased nicer baseboards to be installed after we completed laying tile in all but the bedrooms. My husband's schedule has been so busy, we just could not manage to get this project done. I had painted everything, but getting the time to cut and install was just not happening, nor are we efficient at the process. I finally gave up and looked on Angie's List for someone who could help us. Then, the clouds parted and the rays of sunshine lit upon Marius and ARAD! He squeezed us into his already-full schedule two days that week and got the entire project done expertly, efficiently, and within our budget! I cannot express how grateful I am to him for his professionalism, commitment and efficiency. My house looks so beautifully finished now thanks to his excellent workmanship and he treated us so well! Thank you Marius...you saved me :)

He was fabulous. He only had a picture cause we had removed it from one location and brought it to this location. He had a picture to go by. He did a fabulous job. He was lovely to work with and professional in every way.

He did a great job, it looks fantastic. He was professional and knew what he was doing.

Marius arrived as scheduled and completed the job on time and to our satisfaction. His professionalism was demonstrated not only by the finished product, but also by his refusal to accept any payment from us until he was able to repair a piece of glass in a chandelier in our entry that he accidentally cracked when lifting a piece of wood. He acquired the proper piece and repaired the glass. Once everything was to our satisfaction, would he then accept payment for the job. We are now looking at other projects for him to complete. A trr=ue gentleman and a professional.

Marius came and checked on the job and went back out to purchase a few more pieces of hardware that we forgot. Within a couple of hours he was done and the structure was exactly what we wanted. He is so quick and very professional. You will be very happy with any job that you hire him for. Marius will come back in June and do one final project for us.

Excellent. The cabinet I had was no longer available for purchase, so ARAD had to built it to match. He did an outstanding job. The cabinet matches the rest of the cabinets in my kitchen.

Delivered on time and met all requirements

Great! Marius cane as promised. First off I have had some health issues and the two times I scheduled I had to cancel due to my health. The coupon was to expire the end of Feb. Marius assured me not to worry he would honor the service of 4 hrs carpentry even if it expired. A nice young man that is meticulous and presents attention to detail. It was so interesting watching him work and how well he hung our cabinet doors. The hinges I purchased di not work for the project. It would have left too much of a gap. So Marius took our doors back to the shop and brought the type of hinges needed. Usually when this occurs there is a hefty bill. But Marius only charged for the actual hinges. He came back a few house later and our cabinet look perfect, like they had always been there. Yes we are going to hire him again to install a couple of shade structures. This is the type of craftsman that will do the job just as you would. He will be our go to guy for anything else like this.

He did great. I'm very happy with him. He worked. He wasn't taking his time, he took his time to do it correctly. He was very good, and very helpful too.

Installation went great. I provided the baseboards, and Marius installed them and did a beautiful job. Marius' workmanship was fantastic and fast! I will have him come back for further work.

The first thing I was told When I called ARAD was to get other bids. So, I did. Then I called ARAD back and got their bid. With the things Marius pointed out and the honesty he exhibited, I told him he had the job before he provided a formal bid. I received the bid several days later and before he officially started the job, he insisted that I have them do a sample job. I was very pleased with his company's work, and I told him to put me on his schedule. The refinishing of my cabinets and door sills exceeded my expectations several times over. The color match was perfect and much better than I had hoped for. The gentleman doing the stain work is an artist. The way they masked off the work area kept the rest of my house spotless. I had no dust or over-spray drift at all. When they finished cleaning up, I had nothing that required me to clean, unlike other companies who have been in our house during the current remodeling. As far as the cost, ARAD provided not only the best bid, but did not attempt to "game" the job. Marius was very straight forward and told us what would work and what limitations there were on the renovation, i.e. "water damage areas will not look like new". They didn't, but were real close. Would I use them again? I have already asked them for a bid on two other jobs. The bid is a formality, they will be doing the job.

I found Marius by happenstance, after he was hired to revamp my neighbor's stair railing (which turned out beautifully). I noticed that as he was cutting and prepping the wood outside, he was extremely meticulous. I like to hire those kinds of people! Marius came over and looked at my job, which was pretty small. He was very responsive, and we scheduled the work after the range hood arrived. Marius arrived as scheduled to take down the trim, cabinet, and microwave above our new range. He was very careful and fast. After that was completed, I realized that where the hood was being placed would require more than the original installers would do. I talked with some different handymen, but didn't feel confident that they could do the job well. I texted Marius and asked if he would consider installing the range hood. He warned me that he'd never done that before, but I felt that he was more than competent, and also wanted to hire someone who is a problem solver in case of any weird issues. Fast forward to a couple of weeks later.....I finally had all the parts needed to install the range hood. Marius had looked over the installation guide that I'd emailed him, and knew what needed to be done. Of course, there was something funky! The exterior ducting was off center, because of a random piece of wood inside the soffit. We tried a couple of different methods as a work around, and Marius came back the next morning to complete the install. He had gone to the supply store and talked with a knowledgeable person to find exactly the right piece. Long story short, it was kind of a pain to figure out, but Marius did it the right way. The hood looks great! While he had some down time (I was getting supplies), Marius used this time productively, and drilled the holes for cabinet pulls x 64. All in all, I'm more than happy with the installation. I don't know that Marius would want to install another range hood, but this is more a commentary on his absolute integrity and willingness to do the job right. I can recommend his work with no reservations! I plan to hire Marius again when we replace wood flooring. The pictures below are a before and after. The picture with the white microwave is the before, and the range and pro hood are the after picture. Obviously, there's some drywall repair and painting to do, but that was not part of Marius' job.

We did not schedule the work due to the complexity and expense to remove the table. If we had wanted to afford the work I am sure it would have been done very professionally.

Excellent - very happy with the price and results.

Arrived on time, very friendly, great workmanship, and stuck to the original price quote even though the work took longer than originally estimated. Would definitely hire again!

The work was completed in good time and looks fantastic! ARAD was professional to work with! He took down the old microwave and installed the new one for me as well. I'm very pleased and highly recommend him for woodworking needs. thank you Marius!

There was some mix up with the contractor's phone/email notification from Angie's List that I had purchased his service. Marius Vitelar promptly contacted me, and came by the house to provide a consultation about installing ceiling cabinet molding. I did not have enough molding for the job and the work is pending my getting the molding for him. I am totally confident that he will do an outstanding job.

These guys are good -- came up with several options to trim door frames, did interior and exterior on several doors in record time and with outstanding quality. Nice guys, very courteous, would recommend them highly.

Marius gave me an estimate today. He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and immensely helpful. His estimates are fair and very competitive. Once you meet him you know you've found your guy to do any woodwork job. He opened my front door and noticed a problem and fixed it on the spot with no thought to get paid. Thank you Marius!
