Referral based for 32 years, Rade quality and experience is well known throughout my circle of family and friends. The job went smoothly and was done in about 3 weeks. He's easily contacted by cell which he always answers and I'd definitely use his services again (which is why I thought I'd start the ball rolling and add his company to Angies List).
