Zachry expands into water infrastructure with acquisition of Crescent Constructors
(UI) — Zachry Construction Corporation has reached an agreement to acquire Crescent Constructors, a Plano-based firm specializing in water and wastewater infrastructure projects. The deal expands Zachry’s capabilities in one of the fastest-growing segments of the U.S. construction market.
“This acquisition marks an exciting expansion for Zachry into the water infrastructure market,” said Travis Mross, Executive Vice President of Zachry Construction Corporation. “Crescent brings the specialized expertise, talent, and project experience needed to immediately establish a stronger presence in this critical and fast-growing sector. Their proven success aligns with our vision for long-term, sustainable growth.”
Crescent employs more than 100 professionals and has delivered numerous municipal and industrial water and wastewater projects across North Texas. The firm has built a strong reputation for constructing and designing treatment plants, lift stations, and complex reservoir and conveyance systems.
Mike Daigre, founder of Crescent Constructors, said joining Zachry represents a natural next step. “We share a commitment to safety, strong culture, and serving our communities. With the strength of Zachry’s national platform behind us, we are excited to grow our capabilities and continue delivering essential infrastructure.”
Crescent will continue operating under its current name as a Zachry affiliate, maintaining its Plano headquarters while leveraging Zachry’s capital resources and national network.
“Water is the future of infrastructure,” Mross added. “This acquisition ensures we are well positioned to lead in this space—for our clients, our people, and the communities we serve.”
Zachry Construction, based in San Antonio, serves public and private clients nationwide across transportation, heavy civil, and utility markets.
