What Anchor Construction does

Anchor Construction Corporation is a privately held, self-performing utility and infrastructure construction firm headquartered in Washington, D.C., founded in 1985 (originally as C & F Construction) and operating across Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, and Washington, D.C. With 450+ professionals and four offices/yard locations (Washington D.C., Lanham MD, Baltimore MD, Landover MD), the firm executes underground wet and dry utilities (storm, sanitary, water; power, communications), surface restoration, structures and bridges, and specialty construction including trenchless methods and green infrastructure. It holds prequalification and Class A licensing across DC, MD, VA, DE, VDOT, the Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority, and Amtrak, plus 10+ NAICS code approvals and DC CBE/LSDBE certifications.

The company's business model is project-based enterprise construction services revenue, generated through competitive bidding on public agency RFPs (DC Water, DDOT, MDOT SHA, WSSC, City of Baltimore) and approved-contractor relationships with regulated utilities (PEPCO, Verizon). Contract sizes disclosed range from roughly $7.6M (Klingle Valley Trail) to $26.8M (Rock Creek Project A), with self-performance rates commonly above 56% and reaching 80%+ on design-build work. A recurring on-call/IDIQ emergency response capability with DC Water and NAVFAC provides workload smoothing, and design-build integration offers an end-to-end service layer. The firm is founder-controlled under President and CEO Florentino Gregorio, with no disclosed external investors or parent company, and recent leadership additions (General Counsel 2019, Director of Finance 2021, operational VPs from Kerill, Flippo, Midas, and a national homebuilder) indicate professionalization. Its first disclosed out-of-region project — a $19M AC Hotel by Marriott at CityCentre Houston in Texas with designer DLR Group — was announced in June 2026, marking an early test of geographic and vertical expansion beyond its Mid-Atlantic public-sector core.
