Michael F Rader LLC is a diverse, multi-division, sole proprietor LLC which was founded in 2020. Beginning with a low overhead hobby woodworking business that converted pallet wood into affordable décor, furniture, and pet related items. As time passed, Michael realized a market for other services that either had a direct impact on his life or he had experience with. Michael wanted to ensure that whatever service or product he offered was able to be afforded, or able to be engaged with, by individuals from all walks of life.

The year 2023 brought about another change for Michael when he began contracting his LLC to clear and clean vacant apartments. Growing up in a family that has always been hands on, and owned several apartments, Michael realized that all his experience could be utilized in a growing market that is constantly growing. A Renew Crew was born and is straightforward, professional, and affordable for most all individuals. Once it was realized this market needed a more affordable alternative to the companies charging $100 an hour, Michael decided to deploy a unique cost effective model that helps keep prices low but still has the same level of professionalism of those high priced companies.
