Castleberrys Carpentry

We are very happy with LeBron's work on this beam. Another carpenter that he had helping him accidentally cut the beam too short requiring a new beam to be purchased, but LeBron took care of everything quite quickly and we experienced no delay. He continued to tweak it until we were satisfied with all squeaks being eliminated from the floor above.

Overall the quality of the work has been great and he has been very helpful in providing advice to us since we were doing other portions of the work ourselves. His quote was very competitive to other bids received and although there were some scheduling challenges we would hire him again.

One of my doors was rubbing against the original hardwood floors in my home. LeBron was very helpful in examining the door and finding the problem. He fixed the issue and now my door no longer scrapes against my hardwood floors! I'm very appreciative of his hard work and professionalism.

I recently purchased a mattress and needed a new bed-frame/headboard. I knew I wanted something sturdy, as my old bed-frame creaked every time you rolled over. I did not have an exact design in mind, so I gave LeBron the creative freedom to design the project from start to finish. He used the basket weave fence my grandfather built as inspiration. It turned out amazing. The design is beautiful, it's very sturdy and has sentimental value due to the connection to my grandfather. I am very happy with the services provided and will use LeBron again in the future.

From the beginning, Lebron has been above and beyond helpful. He has takien the time to discuss with me all the options that I have and the reasoning for them. He explains things in depth and great detail but in a way that I can understand. I trust in what he tells me and will be using him for any future services.

LeBron did a great job replacing my kitchen sink. The old one had been in use for 60 years and installed by my grandfather. Like LeBron, my grandfather was a carpenter but unfortunately he considered himself a "jack of all trades". Let's just say several professionals have commented on my grandfather's "interesting" and sometimes mind-boggeling plumbing and electrical work. The bottom line is this faucet had been in place for a very long time and it was extremely difficult to remove. LeBron was able to get the old sink removed and the new one installed in less than an hour including a trip to the hardware store for a new hose. He was extremely polite and curtious, making sure he cleaned up and I was satisfied with the installation. I would trust LeBron to perform any job and will definitely hire him again.

Lebron did a great job on installing the front door viewer for me with a very decent price. He was able to schedule the service with me pretty quick so I did not need to wait for long. And I was very surprised that he went to the hardware shop to get the right drill for my viewer and performed the service on the same day. The service was professional and he cleaned up after the service, which is very nice. I would recommend Lebron as your go-to guy for small project/work.

Lebron and his crew started right away on replacing our deck and were making good progress the first 2-3 weeks. Progress has slowed considerably but the finish is nearing now after about 5 weeks. Someone has been working on the deck every day and there is good communication about the project and any additional work that needed to be done. I highly recommend Castleberry Carpentry.

He did a great job with what he had to work with.. No complaints.

I bought a house to flip or rent in a town that I do not live. I thought I could rely on Angie's List to help me find workers to repair it. I got Castleberry Carpentry's name from the list and contacted them. Mr. Castleberry led me to believe he had a big company and could handle any job. He sent Daniel Stepp to do my job. Daniel told me he was Castleberry's head man and said if I had any questions I was to go through him. He told me later he was the only employee. He asked me to pay him 1/3 down and sign a contract and he would bring me a copy of it. I paid him $675.00 but he never brought me a copy of the contract. 4 days after I wrote the check I had not heard from anyone. Neither he nor Mr. Castleberry would answer the phone so I call the bank to stop payment on the check. While I was in the bank to sign to get the payment stopped, Mr. Castleberry called and said he was out of town and they had not come to the job because they were waiting for the check to clear. I asked Mr. Castleberry for his address and he acted like he did not know it and he was not sure he gave me the right zip code he said. He assured me he would be on the job the next day. When they were not there by 2:00 pm I started to call to see what the problem was. Mr. Stepp finally answered the phone and said he was at Home Depot getting the materials. He finally showed up for work around 4:00 pm. Mr. Castleberry called me after I signed the contract and said I needed a new roof. He said that since he only did top notch work he could not complete the job unless I allowed him to put a new roof on too. I told him I was told by a noted roofer I could get 2-5 years out of my roof and I was not going to roof it now. He finally agreed to continue. While Mr. Stepp had the siding off I discussed framing and covering the deck so I would not have any more problems with water coming in around the door opening on to the deck. Mr. Stepp said they would do it for $2000.00. Mr. Castleberry called me and said that Mr. Stepp had overstepped his authority and it would actually cost $3000.00 to cover the deck. I said I was not willing to pay more than $2500.00 and they could leave the rafters exposed and they agreed to do it for that price. He wanted me to pay $1,570.00 for the first job and sign a contract and pay $750.00 to start the deck cover while the siding was still off since that is where the first rafter for the deck had to go. I did this. The next day, Mr. Stepp put the siding back on the house. I told him it would have to come off again, but he said he had a plan to make it work. He set two posts the next day, but the head clearance was 5'11" and they were set 4" outside of the existing rails. I informed him that would not work. His reply was it would be ok since no one in my family was taller than that. He said he would be in trouble with Mr. Castleberry if he had to by new poles. I agreed to give him $80.00 for new poles. He set the new poles and he told me his plan was to put the first rafter against the siding and he would flash it so it would not leak. I told him that was impossible. He said Mr. Castleberry has said he had been on the job for too long and he was to throw a roof on it and get out of there. I had Mr. Jess Morgan, a contractor for 30 years, look at the job and he agreed, the siding had to come off. Mr. Stepp tried cutting a slit in the siding so he could get flashing to slide behind the siding without removing it. He would not be able to because of nails in the siding. Now I have a cut in my siding around 10-12 feet long. I told him he could not put the rafter against the siding and he called Mr. Castleberry and talked on the phone for hours. I tried to get him to have Mr. Castleberry come and look at the job but he said he was out of town. He never came to the job site. Mr. Stepp went into a fit and roped the deck off with caution tape and said his insurance forbid me from coming past the tape. I could not be on the job site. He called the police and they came and advised me to stay away from Mr. Stepp because he was so agitated. He began loading material in his truck that belonged to me. I asked the police how to stop him. I was teasing and said I was a little 67 year old woman and I could not physically stop him and he said the only way I could stop him from carrying off what he wanted to was to tell the police he could not come back on my property and I did. I looked Mr. Castleberry and Mr. Stepp's names up on the internet to see if they had a police record and their names were there. I've hired another contractor to do the job that Mr. Castleberry said was a $5000.00 job. This experienced, noted contractor is doing the job for $1300.00.

Lebron showed up promptly and worked very hard. He did the job right instead of just getting it done. I appreciated his advice and expertise.

VERY experienced, dedicated, helpful. The windows & doors were salvaged, and therefore kind of a pain in the neck. He was able to make all of them function well, sit square, and look great.

VERY experienced, dedicated, helpful. LeBron is great to work with--a perfectionist, but also able to work with imperfect circumstances (and imperfect help): if he sees something awry in a plan, he always suggests a better solution, but he's also willing to go with someone else's ideas of a project. This was one of several jobs I hired him for, and he did a terrific job on all of them.

See above. I came to this web site so I wouldn't have to go through all this mess.

The job was done very quickly, it looked great, and they cleaned up afterward. I was also very happy with the price. I highly recommend.

It work was great. We discussed options and work came out perfect.

He did a great job. Worked hard to make sure everything was done correctly and in a timely manner He wanted to make sure that I was pleased with the final product.

Lebron selected the materials for the project and we purchased them at Lowe's. Lowe's delivered the deck materials. The project went smoothly. Our renter was very impressed with the deck and soffit repairs.

In this older home, the stove opening for the upper cabinets was 40 inches. The present stove is 30 inches and the counter-top has been permanently constructed for that measurement. This job involved installing a 30 inch stove hood and building spacer shelves. Lebraun Castleberry arrived Monday morning on time. I had previously purchased the required materials for the job. He did a very nice job of constructing the shelves and hood mounting box and resolving some issues I had not considered. He had to compensate for the non-flat wall. He was very willing to do some additional tasks I thought of while he was there, ie working on the cabinet doors and hinges to make them easier to open and close, mounting some blinds. He did this while someone was moving into the house. The shelves were well constructed and looked very good. The money spent included the stove hood and materials.

I am very happy with the work. My doors look great.

Overall on a scale from 1 to 10, Castleberry's Carpentry rates an 11!!

The price was reasonable and he did a pretty good job; it was probably a 9 out of 10.

I called Mr Castleberry to get a bid on reroofing our house. He informed me that he doesn't do much roofing anymore, as he is focusing more on the carpentry side of his business, i.e. decks, doors, cabinets. However, instead of dismissing my request, he spoke with me for 30 minutes and gave me some much needed, very useful information that will help when choosing our contractor and overseeing the work. He was very personable and seemed to genuinely care about the welfare of his customers. We plan to hire him to build our deck once we have gotten our roof taken care of. If you are looking for an honest, upfront individual to pay attention to details, he's your man.
