Kimberli Unger and Tammy Peterson love helping people find the right paint color, the perfect flooring or a unique home decorative item that will help them make their home their own. Their eye for interior design has made TeKa Home Décor and Flooring a popular destination for Vanderhoof do-it-yourselfers, contractors and homeowners.
TeKa Home Décor and Flooring has been an integral part of the Vanderhoof business community for almost three decades. Inside customers will find an array of home decorative items, flooring, paint and other options for making over your home. The store has evolved from a contractor’s supply store to a unique, boutique-style home décor store with big-city inventory thanks to loyal local customers.

Meet Kimberli Unger & Tammy Peterson
Kimberli Unger grew up in an entrepreneurial family, so business ownership was naturally in her blood. "It was always part of my dream for the future," she says. Together with her business partner, Tammy Peterson, she has gone from managing the store to owning it, updating it and growing it.
Both Kimberli and Tammy believe that a big part of their success can be attributed to the close-knit community of Vanderhoof. Kimberli says that "You can always count on people coming together when there's a need somewhere." Not only are Vanderhoof residents concerned about one another, but they're also quick to support local businesses.
Kimberli and Tammy, both members of the local Kinette Club, say that entrepreneurship isn't like working a "traditional" job. "You have to work harder and longer," notes Kimberli. Seeing the delight on a home owner's face when a renovation project comes together is what makes what they do every day worthwhile.
