Our Story

Built on 28 years
of West Texas.

Castlegate Construction is a family business, plain and simple. We've been building homes in this community for over two decades — and every build carries the same standard it did on day one.

How It Started

One standard.
Never compromised.

David Fehr started Castlegate Construction with a straightforward belief: if you're going to build something, build it right. No shortcuts on materials. No cutting corners to move faster. No sacrificing quality to fit a budget that doesn't match the vision.

Over 28 years, that belief has been the foundation of every home we've built in West Texas. It's shaped how we select materials, how we choose our craftsmen, and how we work with every client from the first conversation to the final walkthrough.

Zachary joined the business to make sure that same standard extends to every client experience — transparent pricing, clear communication, and a process that keeps you informed every step of the way.

What We Stand For

The values behind
every build.

01
Quality Over Quantity

We build fewer homes than most. That's intentional. Every project gets our full attention — not a fraction of it.

02
Honest Communication

You'll always know where your build stands. We don't leave clients in the dark — ever.

03
Craftsmanship

We work with craftsmen who care about what they build. The details that most people skip are the ones we pay most attention to.

04
Built to Last

A home should outlast the people who built it. We select materials and methods that hold up — for decades.

05
Your Vision First

We don't push a house plan that's convenient for us. We start with what you want and work backwards from there.

06
West Texas Roots

We live and work here. This community is our home too — and that means something when we put our name on a build.

The People Behind the Build

A family business.
Real people, real accountability.

Our Philosophy

We don't build homes in volume. We build them with intention — guided by a belief that quality is never a shortcut, and that every home we build should stand long after we're done building it.
