Barkley Carpentry, custom cabinets & woodwork in Prosper.
Barkley Carpentry builds custom cabinets, built-ins, mantels and feature walls by hand for homes in Prosper, Texas, based in nearby Pilot Point.
Built for Prosper homes
New homes, bare walls, room for real woodwork.
Prosper was built in 1902 as a stop on the St. Louis, San Francisco and Texas Railway, and took its name from the prosperous crops and living the area offered. Farmers here grew cotton and corn on the rich Blackland Prairie. The town counted 2,097 people in 2000 and 30,174 at the 2020 census, and new communities keep going up, among them Windsong Ranch with its man-made crystalline lagoon. A brand-new house is a blank canvas on the inside: a fireplace with no mantel, a great room with empty walls, a study waiting on its built-ins.

The local difference
Close enough to do it himself.
A cabinet company ships the same box to Prosper 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.
