I found (Karl) Vande Hey on this website. He and his company are fabulous, do EXCEPTIONAL WORKMANSHIP and I couldn't be happier! He totally transformed my kitchen, etc beyond my wildest dreams! Everyone is wonderful, timely, detailed oriented and easy to work with.
My kitchen projection was summer, 2019. Since then he has completed a bathroom, made a console for my family room, desk with additional cabinetry and will be starting my master bath in the next couple of months. Incredible artisanship and very reasonable. Five stars aren't really enough...a ten+ would be more accurate. Thank you Karl and Company!Read More

I found Karl through Houzz.com and am so thankful I did and that he took on my project. I ended up in a bad place when another cabinet provider walked off the job. Karl successfully came in and finished the work and made it even better than what was originally planned. For my particular situation he ended up refinishing almost all my cabinets due to the poor work done by the other company. He was able to custom make missing pieces and put everything back together. They ended up looking amazing!! I had contacted several other places who said I would need to scrap everything and start over. Karl and his crew really saved me.
After the cabinetry was mostly finished I had him add some extra work such as a banquette bench and shiplap wood to a ceiling and wall. It really gave my home a more customized look.
Vande Hey Associates is highly recommended.Read More

Highly recommend Vande Hey Associates LLc!
The talent, experience, knowledge, and professionalism is apparent through each step of the project. The quality and finish of the custom cabinetry is beautiful. Recently completed my second home project with Karl, everything went smoothly, delivered and installed as promised and on schedule. Karl is efficient and thorough, both projects were completed during the initial install, transforming open spaces into the centerpiece of my homes. Karl is flexible and works well with other trades to make the project the best it can be. My decision to hire Karl and his staff, is one of the best choices I have made.Read More

I started remodeling my 'new to me' house last June. I wasted a lot of money and time with several kitchen and cabinet designers; unfortunately none of the plans they came up with could even meet my minimum expectation. Not to mention the ridiculous high fee they asked for. Luckily a friend, who used work with Karl 25 years ago, referred Karl to me.
In 3 months, as promised Karl provided me a fabulous custom made kitchen that implements my vision, with some brilliant features that never occurred to me before.
The color, design, material, layout of my kitchen are not only beautiful, but also functional and practical. The workmanship, attention to detail, the attitude and service from Karl and his team are beyond top notch.
Everyday working in my kitchen is a joy. My friends, neighbors, even my window-covering contractor and bathroom designer all asked me where I got such a gorgeous kitchen. They were surprised by the reasonable price I paid for a customer made kitchen that is lower than ready made ones from cabinet stores.
Karl also made cabinets for my bathrooms, utility room, and linen closet. They all turned out wonderful with brilliant surprises, such as the hidden drawer in the bathroom hides weight scale, the handy drawer in the utility room for easy to misplaced items.
I am saving up so that I could hire Karl to make cabinets in other rooms, such as office and family room. I will never hire any one else besides Karl because I trust his artistic talent, real world working experience, integrity and professionalism. when I have found the best cabinet professional, no reason for me to settle on others.Read More

We had great results with Karl in a significant project in 2008 - entire re-do of kitchen cabinets, downstairs bath cabinets, and hallway storage. So we brought him back for round two in 2014 - entire re-do of guest and master bath cabinets (including adding a custom-designed "locker" in the master), plus amazing work on a large "barn door" dividing seating and sleep areas of master bedroom.
Careful, meticulous work. Patient listener who actually pays attention to our ideas - but will respectfully chime in with his own thoughts, and we quickly learned it was worth our while to listen! I described in general terms the "locker" concept I was looking for but didn't know how to design - Karl quickly came back with spot-on drawings.
Pricing was reasonable (and we did collect a few quotes for comparison purposes) - we felt it was a bargain relative to quality.
It takes a lot of patience to work with us - requires repeated return visits to adjust things that frankly were rather insignificant - Karl's follow-up was as good as the initial work.
So yes, we were happy.Read More

We have worked with Karl on different projects for the past 20 years and wouldn't think of using anyone else. His work is amazing with beautiful finishes and high quality materials. There is no comparison between the cabinets he has made for us and the ones that have come in even the high end tract homes we have lived in. Having the ability to customize your cabinetry to the exact specifications you want makes a huge difference in the end product. We are currently working with him on a vacation home and his price was no more than the big box store that our builder wanted us to use. His prices have always been well within reason for custom cabinets.
If I have one small criticism, and I do mean small, it is that he is not always done with the install on time. That being said, he is a small operation and I've been known to make changes and add-ons during the job. In the end he delivers such a superior product that he is worth the wait!Read More

Karl did a remarkable job for us. We had him build a custom wine room and we couldn't be happier with how the project turned out. He was great at taking our ideas and descriptions and bringing them to life. His quality of work is best in class and it was all completed in a timely manner. If you are looking for quality custom work then I would strongly recommend Vande Hey Associates.Read More
