Country quiet, and rooms worth finishing.

Argyle was known as Pilot Knob or Waintown until the Texas and Pacific Railway built through in 1881, and the town was founded at the new depot that November. Farmers grew wheat and oats to ship out on the rail, and in 2000 the one factory in town made wooden cabinets. Over the 1980s and 1990s families moved out from the cities for the country atmosphere, and at the 2020 census 92.1 percent of occupied homes in Argyle were owner-occupied.

The local difference

Close enough to do it himself.

A cabinet company ships the same box to Argyle that it ships everywhere. Barkley Carpentry drives over from Pilot Point, looks at your actual wall and your actual light, and builds the piece for that room. Barkley measures it, builds it and installs it himself, so the person who cut the wood is the person who hangs it.
