Like so many in West Michigan, my family is from the Netherlands. My great-grandparents came to America in the late 1880's and raised their family on a farm in Jamestown. I was raised on that same farm.
My childhood is filled with memories of cutting and baling hay, raising 4-H steers, growing and selling vegetables at the local flea market, building go-carts and furniture with my Cadet leaders, walking my trap lines in the pre-dawn, coon hunting and milking cows.After studying under the tutelage of a Master Painter in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, I returned to West Michigan and launched VanDerKolk Painting in 1991.

Vanderkolk was great and I highly recommend them. Declan was our project manager and he was very professional. Dave and Ryan were the painters on our project and they were excellent. We are extremely pleased with their work and will use these guys on any painting project that we have in the future.

I contacted VanDerKolk Painting at random when I was looking for some help removing old paint from and then repainting my basement walls. Declan was quick to stop by to estimate the job and Aurelio did great work. They also helped repair some drywall and it looks good as new. I'd definitely recommend working with this company. They are courteous, responsive, and the price seemed right to me especially after seeing the fantastic results.

We have used Vanderkolk multiple times now. This review is long overdue. They did our living and dining room which turned out perfect. Most recently we had a slider door & trim in need of stain & repair as result of damage done to it. I called Tom and he was right on it for us. He sent Raphael (super nice young man) over to work his magic and we couldn't be happier. Vanderkolk has always been very responsive to us and we totally trust him and the work they do. My wife and I will for sure use him again and I strongly recommend you using this painting company.

In 2019, we purchased and renovated a 110 year old Eastown house. Probably the most important parts of the renovation were whole interior and exterior paintings. We met with several companies to get bids and selected VanDerKolk and Kooi. While bid amounts were comparable, we felt that Blake, the project manager, understood what we were trying to accomplish with the house. He connected us with a plaster/ drywall professional (who was great) who squeezed us in to get the project started by resurfacing all the walls. And he made sure the painting projects kept on track. The interior paint job was

We recently approached VanDerKolk Painting to look at painting our facility. The interior walls and ceiling here, were incredibly dusty and dirty, also our steel columns and crane supports created a difficult challenge. Tom and Brady were absolutely first class to work with offering the perfect solutions to address our needs. The VanDerKolk paint team also came in and worked around us staging off areas, prepping and even came in after hours to complete the work. They did a tremendous job and at a great price, highly recommend!!
