“I can’t say enough about Josh and Jodi Castleberry. They have been amazing to work with and have kept me up on everything. I know it wasn’t easy since I’m in Texas but these two made everything so accommodating. Everyone says building your home is stressful, well with Josh Castleberry Construction I had zero stress!!! Josh made sure of the construction completion and everything was done correctly and Jodi helped so much with colors, floors and the coordination of all the schemes in the house. I have seen the other homes that they have built and the one they have done for me doesn’t even compare but they treated me as though I was building a mansion. I would highly recommend Josh Castleberry Construction and Jodi McFarland-Castleberry for building your dream home. Thank you for everything and can’t wait to start living in my home!!!”

“Could not be more pleased with our whole experience working with Josh and Jodi Castleberry to create our dream house on Lake Hamilton. Listening to our wants and needs and then being completely honest with us was at the top of our list when selecting a builder. We had a lakeside lot, a budget, a good idea of the design, and a wish list of must haves. We told Josh that we wanted a realistic estimate and that if we went over budget we wanted it to be because of us. The first thing Josh told us was we would not get the garage layout we had citing a lack of room to get in and out. He said if we would just change the direction we could save a lot of money on site prep, concrete, move a roof line and actually provide us with a better deck design across both levels across the back of the house. That suggestion allowed us to immediately upgrade the wood decks to Timbertech composite decking and have an easily accessable two-car garage. Jodi’s help was invaulable when selecting cabinetry, hardware, countertops, etc. While the final budget went over, it was only because as Josh saved us money during construction we added a couple of extra projects and made several upgrades along the way.
If you find yourself traveling east across Lake Hamilton on the Highway 70 bridge, just look right for the new navy blue house on the first point and you’ll likely see us entertaining guests on the amazing outdoor areas. We made our dream house and new friends for life.”

“We couldn’t say enough about Josh Castleberry Construction! From beginning to end, we were impressed with Josh’s professionalism, work ethic, time management, attention to detail and attentiveness to our ever expanding requests for the HUGE project he was undertaking.
We are new to the South and as a result, had no barometer for choosing a respected company to take on the task of completely renovating our home. In early 2020, we began researching about a dozen general contractors around the area and settled on 3 companies. After setting up interviews at our new home with these 3 local contractors, we knew Mr Castleberry was the right pick for us! At the time of our project we were living on the west coast so all communication was done over the phone and through text messaging. Everything was communicated effectively and we had huge peace of mind because we were kept in the loop throughout the entire project. Considering the COVID Pandemic was in high alert at the time, we were surprised our project was completed ahead of schedule.
Our home renovation was extensive and included removing old carpeting and flooring and replacing with new hardwood floors throughout, removal of walls to open up our lake views and add a breakfast nook, additions of new walls to turn our 2 bedroom home into a 4 bedroom functioning vacation home, wallpaper removal and repainting of walls, trim, ceilings, doors, removing, protecting then replacing all hardware, window treatments, etc, after painting was completed, adding an 8×8 foot custom rounded bar counter and entertainment area, relocating laundry room to opposite side of house, fixing our large water feature in front yard, fixing and replacing all outer lighting along seawall and around house, fixing broken brick on exterior of home. (I’m sure I’m missing a few things)
To say Mr. Castleberry is knowledgeable in his field would be an understatement. He has an expanded list of professional subcontractors that work for him and respect him. Beyond our home job, he was able to connect us with reputable landscaping and lawn care businesses that carry the same degree of professionalism and quality to their work. (A plus for us since we were new to the area.) On a side note – we were in desperate need of some help in the decorating area of expertise so we were able to hire his wife, Jodi Castleberry, who has excellent taste and a good eye for home design. She was extremely reasonable in price for consulting with us on anything from our paint color schemes, to suggestions on furnishings, to redesigning kitchens and baths, and assisting in crafting a beautiful exterior home upgrade.
Because he did such an amazing job for us the first time around, we recently rehired Josh Castleberry Construction to help us with an enormous project in Hot Springs which involves the renovation of 9 historic cottages that are almost 100 years old. Our project was originally slated for completion by Jan 2022, but we are currently about 4 months ahead of schedule primarily due to Mr Castleberry’s time management skills and his ability to ensure efficient work is delivered from his staff and subcontractors.
We plan to build a new home in Hot Springs Village soon and you can bet that we will DEFINITELY hire Josh Castleberry Construction for our next project!”

“Shortly after purchasing our home in Hot Springs Village, our realtor recommended Josh Castleberry for the renovations needed to update the house. From our first contact with Josh we were impressed by him. We have never worked with a contractor that was more responsive. Our renovations were extensive, and Josh kept us up informed throughout the entire project. His crew showed up when they were supposed to and were committed to finishing on time. The end result was even better than we could have imagined! We feel like we have a brand-new house! We wouldn’t consider anyone else should a future project arise. We highly recommend Josh Castleberry for your renovation needs. You won’t be disappointed!”

“I’ve had a 10 year relationship with Josh Castleberry. We contracted a 3 month project at my home and found Josh to be very reliable and honest throughout the project. I was very pleased with the job. I know Josh to be a good hard worker as well as a good family man.”

“It is my pleasure to write a recommendation for a truly talented JoshCastleberry as a general contractor. I have had the privilege of working with Mr. Castleberry on several occasions over the past 5 years.
Throughout our working relationship, Mr. Castleberry has always conducted himself as an accomplished professional. He has been accurate in his initial assessment of my projects and the estimated cost. He was always clear in his estimation of what was going to be required, and what we could expect during the construction period. He chose and managed the sub-contractors well and always kept the work area clean and tidy as possible.
Just to mention one project; Mr Castleberry transformed my backyard into a lovely tranquil resort type setting. He built a 16 x 24 Pergola and built a open lower deck which compliments the Pergola. We have many neighborhood gatherings which everyone enjoys. This job was done with care and precision, and I believe the end results was a wonderful outcome and a work
of art.”
