Almost Anything Wood: Custom-built beauty, function and style for every living space

What’s in a name? With Almost Anything Wood the name says it all. Almost. Anything. Wood! And everything is custom built, from beautiful kitchen cabinetry and islands, vanities and wall units, to unique live-edge furniture and accents for your home, cottage or office. 

The family-owned business has developed a reputation of excellence by perfecting the art of craftsmanship, using quality materials and offering extraordinary customer service for over 35 years. Lifelong Fergus residents Dave and Deb Veldhuizen, along with their son Nick have built their business in the community they call home and treat all their customers as they would want to be treated themselves.

They will work with you every step of the way, from design to custom builds to installation and follow-up.

Almost Anything Wood’s shop on Breadalbane Street in Fergus is fronted by their gallery, where samples of their custom-built, gorgeous, functional and practical work is showcased.

Their expertise is reflected in the repeat business of customers and the friends and family of customers. Renovating any space and working on new builds – there is no project too big or too small for the team at Almost Anything Wood. 

Dave believes that they gained their reputation because their work is high quality. “Word of mouth is a powerful thing.”

Dave and Nick will come to you to get a sense of your style and your vision, determine your needs and suggest ideal ways to make the most of your space. Back at the office, Deb can meet with you to discuss design and style choices like handles, colours, and other accessories. Using precise measurements, the team works with a virtual computerized system to produce a virtual three-dimensional design of your room or project. Afterwards, any desired changes can be made, and wood finishes and colours are selected.

The showroom has two model kitchens, a live-edge table and fireplace, a selection of cabinet styles, finishes and doors, handles and accents. With over three decades of experience, and a select group of trusted suppliers, customers know the product quality of every material at Almost Anything Wood meets the team’s high standard.

Completely customizable, your designs will function to your specifications. Imagine the ease and beauty of soft-close track fixtures and hinges, push-to-open and dovetailed drawers. Or the magic of compartmentalizing with the use of ‘pull-out’ racks for cutlery, waste, dishes – anything you can dream of, they can make it a reality.

While the team stays current with new technologies and trends in the industry, like the latest CNC machine for precision cutting, the team’s skill in hand-sanding and finishing all their work brings artistry to every project they undertake.

Whether you prefer the traditional look of walnut cabinets, the honeyed warmth of maple or the elegance of cherry or the more exotic look of white oak, the choice is yours. Dave and Nick can make stain and colour suggestions that reflect your taste and lifestyle. 

You will never find prefabricated or particle board in their work. Cabinets are built using environmentally friendly maple plywood that is strong and light and provides a more durable finish. And all hardware comes with a lifetime guarantee.

The team is proud of their work, and attention to detail is one of the keys to their success. Working with top contractors in the business is a testament to their high standards in this community and in cottage country and communities like Niagara-on-the-Lake.

Major renovations incorporate elements like flooring, wiring and plumbing. Part of the relationship with contractors is built on the fact that the team at Almost Anything Wood knows how to smooth out operations and blend their work into all the other aspects of your renovation or new build.

Let them re-design and create an oasis out of your ensuite, or a luxurious main floor bathroom or delightful powder room. Bedrooms, living rooms, home office and dens – whatever space you are renovating, Almost Anything Wood can help enhance your home. 

The kitchen is still the heart of many homes. It can also be the room that most influences the sale of your home, condo or cottage. Whatever your dream kitchen is, Almost Anything Wood will get it right the first time. 

Countertops are a focal point in your kitchen – it can tie everything together. Quartz, granite, stone and budget-friendly durable laminates that you’ll need to touch to believe aren’t the real thing, whatever you choose the team has fabulous, stylish options for handles and knobs. 

Beyond the kitchen cabinetry with amazing built-in storage solutions and countertops, Almost Anything Wood can create your bar top, wall unit, walk-in closet, kitchen island and live-edge furniture for any room.

Dave says Almost Anything Wood is great for the DIY fan. Source your raw material at the shop. Select from the ever-changing selection of natural wood for your own live edge project. Find everything you need to complete your project from paint and epoxies to the necessary hardware.

 A certified Ecopoxy dealer, the team can embellish the live-edge pieces they create by colourfully filling in natural wood voids and grooves, transforming pieces into something spectacular.

Bring your vision and Almost Anything Wood will impress you with their knowledge and skill and can make that vision a reality.
