                CENTEX CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS PRESIDENT TO RETIRE


          (DALLAS, TX Feb. 3, 2003): Centex Construction Products, Inc. (NYSE:
CXP) announced today that its President and Chief Executive Officer Richard D.
"Dick" Jones, Jr. has decided to retire effective March 31, 2003, the end of the
company's fiscal year 2003. He will also resign from CXP's board of directors.

          Mr. Jones' responsibilities will be assumed by Laurence E. Hirsch. Mr.
Hirsch has been CXP's Chairman since the company became publicly held in 1994
and will now also become its Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Hirsch, who is also
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CXP's majority owner, Centex
Corporation, has extensive experience in the construction products field.

          Mr. Hirsch said, "In his more than 13 years with CXP, Dick has
contributed greatly to its growth, significantly improved its operating
performance and increased its shareholder value. Although we will miss Dick's
leadership, we are fortunate to have in place the strongest management team in
CXP's history. I'm confident that together, we will continue to drive the
company forward."

directors.
