Who We Are

Building Dreams, Anchoring Excellence

Sitting at their kitchen table in 1996, Ray and Roberta Zamora found themselves driven by a shared vision for success. With Ray’s extensive construction experience and Roberta’s unwavering support, they founded RGZ Construction. Anchored by their values of family, freedom, and integrity, they set out to land their first customer. That first project—installing a doggie door for a former coworker—marked the beginning of what would become a thriving enterprise.

Building a reputation

The Zamoras’ commitment to quality and efficiency quickly gained attention. A pivotal moment arrived when they completed a fire extinguisher project for a local high school in just two weeks. The project’s original completion timeline was 3 months. This success opened the doors to a contract with the Albuquerque Public Schools in 1998, establishing a partnership that continues to this day.

New name, same quality service

From Ray and three employees, the company grew to employ up to 50 people at its peak. Today, they maintain a strong team of about 35 dedicated professionals. The company’s focus on government facilities and schools throughout New Mexico has been a cornerstone of its success.

The transition from RGZ to AnchorBuilt came with a touch of humor. While brainstorming new names, the Zamoras joked about a “ball and chain,” reflecting their marital status. This led to discussions about how balls and chains together provide strength and stability, ultimately inspiring the AnchorBuilt name.
