Class A Builder, Contractor Regulations Expert, Remodeling Specialist and Home Improvement Consultant.

Ray Milano is the Founder and President of 9 Hammers Home Improvement, LLC, a leading provider of home improvement and remodeling solutions for residential communities in the greater Fredericksburg area. He has years of experience providing general contracting, remodeling and consulting services to real estate professionals, homeowners and other contractors. His experience coupled with a deep passion to help others has played a major role in his accomplishments.

Ray is an expert on contractor regulations. He has provided homeowners with support after contractors have failed to complete already funded work or given misleading estimates resulting in increased repair costs. Many aspiring contractors have little experience understanding how to setup and operate a legitimate business. Ray has guided many contractors through the essential steps of creating a business entity, taking exams, applying for a contractor’s license and finding insurance.

Putting “what’s right before what’s easy” is Ray’s way of life. Ray Milano grew up in Vienna Virginia and was introduced to residential construction at the age of five when the Milano family hired contractors to build a large addition to their home. Firsthand experience dealing with a home improvement nightmare filled Ray with the desire to help others avoid the chaos that can be associated with residential contracting. He has a meticulous approach in finding the details that have added thousands of dollars to home insurance claim payouts. Working with real estate professionals has been an eye-opening experience for Ray. His stories are endless when it comes to foreclosing properties, rehabbing or flipping properties and managing a fast-paced, active jobsite.
