I have worked with Ray Kline as my contractor on and off since 2012. I initially asked if he thought he could create a full kitchen out of a basement mudroom for what was to be a furnished studio apartment. Ray’s experience and creativity as such that not only did he create a kitchen out of an extremely limited space, he offered a vision that transformed a once dreary and unwelcoming basement into a bright and modern living space. Since then Ray has helped me with other challenging projects in my 115-year old house: he replaced a hole in the hardwood floors, matching an intricate design no longer made today; he created an attic space where none existed; he turned a screened-in porch into an insulated den and added a deck and patio to the back of the house. Ray’s talent for design puts him above most in the trade; he looks to cut the cost of construction whenever possible and his friendly, upbeat demeanor makes him a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Ray and his team of professionals for any construction or design purposes.

“I have used RJK Design on many projects and they have always done exceptional work. I had my house remodeled and a rental property that was destroyed by a flood, rebuilt from the ground up by Mr. Kline. His ability to work with and guide a client through the insurance process, to make sure you get the most from your claim, is amazing.
Mr. Kline has also done work for many of my family members homes and the results are always the same . . . . excellent!
He gets it done, on time and on budget . . . . no worries!”

“We have had Ray do work in our home over the years and are very pleased with his work. Ray did a wonderful job transforming our office to a beautiful and functional room with a wall of cabinets and double work station, taking out paneling and drop ceiling and replacing with drywall, new lighting, adding a closet and painting. He remodeled a bedroom, replacing a drop ceiling with drywall, new lighting and paint. He has done several other projects for us that we have been very happy with. Ray and his electrician and plumber have always been very respectful and we never had to worry about leaving them alone in our home and have given them a key when necessary. Ray is a very talented and hard worker and always takes the extra effort to do the job right and not cut corners. He is licensed, bonded and insured and obtains any permits that are needed and will be there when the inspector does the inspection. I would highly recommend Ray for any contracting needs you may have.”

“Ray did an excellent job on a few different projects on my house (building a deck, kitchen upgrade, roof work). He was very thorough with his work, and provided excellent suggestions throughout the process for all projects. I would recommend RJK Designs to my friends and plan to work with Ray on future home projects.”

“Ray Kline is a perfectionist. His work is solid and clean and he is able to think outside the box when faced with unusual situations. I doubt there is anything he won’t tackle. Because of this he is very much in demand and you may have to wait for him to get to you but the wait is well worth it! Call him now.”

“My husband and I had the good fortune to meet Ray right before we moved into our new home a few years ago. For us, Ray has taken care of a wide range of repairs and jobs including plumbing, appliance installation, painting, landscaping, roofing, drywall repair, mysterious electrical problems, flooring, and HVAC. He provides reliable estimates and his staff are trustworthy experts. Ray is also someone you can call in a real emergency, who will be there to help within the hour. When we had a major plumbing leak at the exact time that the biggest snowfall in decades was hitting DC, Ray 4-wheeled his way through the snow storm and addressed the problem. I am completely comfortable having Ray in our home, and recommend him without hesitation for any home contractor job.”
