About ZGC

Veteran-led commercial general contracting built on a construction legacy dating to 1979

Ziggys General Contracting is an Irving-based, veteran-owned and family-operated commercial general contractor serving businesses, facilities and public-sector clients throughout Dallas-Fort Worth and Texas.

Our History

Carrying forward the Ziggys construction legacy

The Ziggys construction story began in 1979 with Billy “Ziggy” Ziegenfuss, whose work established the trade relationships, reputation and construction legacy behind the name.

Following Ziggy’s passing in 2024, Matthew A. Young Sr. carried that legacy forward under Ziggys General Contracting LLC. The current company combines those longstanding construction roots with a modern commercial-construction operating model focused on planning, accountability, documentation and disciplined project execution.

ZGC today serves commercial and government clients across Dallas-Fort Worth and Texas while preserving the family-operated character and practical construction experience associated with the Ziggys name.
