They brought a level of creativity, expertise, and attention to detail to that was unmatched. Throughout the entire process they were professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure every detail was perfect. No question or concern ever went unanswered as their communication and prompt response time made the renovation process smooth and stress-free. What really stood out was their eye for design and functionality. They helped me to design a kitchen that is not only beautiful, but also practical. I’m beyond happy with my new kitchen and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for talented, detail-oriented designers who truly care about their clients and their work. **★★★★★ — HU-460431998, May 2026** > Working with Melissa and Angela of Ragonesi Design, was truly one of the best decisions we made during our apartment renovation. We were living in Florida while managing a full apartment project in Long Beach, New York and I honestly don’t know how we would have pulled it off without their help. From the very beginning, communication was outstanding. They kept us informed every step of the way, responded quickly to questions, and made what could have been an incredibly stressful process, feel smooth and manageable. Everything was handled in a timely and professional manner, and their attention to detail gave us the complete confidence, even from long distance. not only did they help create a beautiful design for our new apartment, but they also connected us with a fantastic contractor, Kevin Sime, KS restoration who did exceptional work. The entire team worked seamlessly together, and the end result exceeded our expectations. > > We are beyond grateful for their guidance, expertise, and support throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Ragonesi Design to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and truly dedicated team. A special shout out to Angela, my go to person she is a superpower! **★★★★★ — Brittany Riecker, Jan. 2026** > If you are looking for perfection, you are in great hands. I came to Ragonesi Design with not having any clue where to start and with no vision. Ragonesi design not only gave me a vision but also gave honest opinions and feedback. They were patient with me and also supported my wish list and made it come to life. They do not disappoint! I love my kitchen, especially my custom hood. I literally gave them a picture and they recreated it to perfection. They are amazing to work with and they take their work very serious as if it was their own home. I am confident to say that Ragonesi Design will not let you down. **★★★★★ — Gabby H, Jan. 2026** > Melissa, Mitch, Angela and team were absolutely incredible to work with! They designed and built not only a beautiful eat-in kitchen for us, but gorgeous custom millwork for every room of our NYC apartment - including shelving and built-ins for all bedrooms, a walk-in master closet, new fireplace mantle in the living room and beautiful bookshelves in our dining room. The team was professional, thoughtful and creative every step along the way, helping to come up with ideas to fit our layout and work around restrictions of our old, pre-war apartment building. As first-timers doing a big renovation, Melissa and team guided us through all elements of the process and iterated the plans and drawings to make sure the final set matched exactly what we were looking for. We are incredibly pleased with the quality of the work and how everything has turned out. Their work completely transformed our apartment and we would recommend them highly to anyone doing a project large or small! **★★★★★ — Sophia, Jan. 2026** > Melissa listened to what I needed in terms of counter space and created two zones for my kitchen. These zones have worked out perfectly. Her recommendations for appliances and plumbing were also great and helpful. **★★★★★ — North Massapequa Home, Dec. 2025** > What a pleasure it was to work with Melissa, Angela and the crew at Ragonesi Design. I was renovating my childhood home from top to bottom and a friend recommended Melissa to me. It was the right call. > Melissa came to the house and we discussed a number of designs to maximize the space and design of a small split level home in Massapequa. > She had some great ideas that really flowed well and helped me tie in to my other extensive renovations. > The cabinets were well made and the whole kitchen had a high end look that the new owners absolutely love. The best part was the price did not break the bank. > I highly recommend Melissa and the crew at Ragonesi. **★★★★★ — HU-998180958, Dec. 2025** > It was truly a delight to collaborate with Ragonesi Design. > > They created our ideal kitchen along with floating vanities. Every aspect was executed with utmost professionalism and exquisite attention to detail. > > Their punctuality and professionalism were commendable. **★★★★★ — Matt Gertler, July 2025** > I recently remodeled my bathroom and Melissa and her team were great at picking out all the designs for my project. They were very easy to work with finding great tiles and fixtures. They found me a great contractor in Goodmock and sons to do the work and they did a fabulous job! It was my only bathroom and they were able to do the work without having much time staying out of my home. I would definitely use them again for other projects I plan for my house. **★★★★★ — Barbara Nadler, Dec. 2024** > It was a pleasure working with Melissa and Mitch! They listened to everything I said and were most accommodating. My new kitchen is breathtaking and everything I wanted. > They built me a wall unit and a sideboard. The designs were in my head and now they are in my home. I am thrilled **★★★★★ — auntpeg8, June 2024** > We loved working with Melissa and her team! > > She helped us make the best choices for our kitchen, > showing us options we would never have considered. > > The outcome of the project was phenomenal - > new and welcoming. Our friends and family > love our new kitchen, too! **★★★★★ — kathryn taylor, May 2024** > They created beautiful custom arched shelving above lower cabinetry. They worked with me to have it wallpapered mid project. Came out stunning, excellent quality and craftsmanship. They made my vision a reality. Highly recommend. **Comment from Ragonesi Design / Certified WBE:** > Thank you for the opportunity to make these arches for you. Your vision was awesome ! **★★★★★ — bemco4, Dec. 2023** > We recently underwent a complete renovation of our kitchen, mudroom, and downstairs area. The team, composed of Melissa, Mitch, and Angela, did an exceptional job. The custom cabinetry is beautifully constructed, using high-quality materials that look fantastic and are solid and durable. Melissa and Mitch took the time to understand our needs and preferences, and they created a kitchen that perfectly matched our vision. Throughout the entire process, Melissa, Mitch, Angela, and the team were a pleasure to work with. They were professional and responsive and always went above and beyond to ensure we were delighted with every aspect of the project.
