Staff Highlights
Jose Maldonado
 Mr. Maldonado has been in the construction industry for over 23 years. His introduction into construction began as a laborer for a local masonry contractor. With greater aspirations he began Old Veteran Tuckpointing in 1986 as a sole proprietor specializing in masonry restoration. After 6 years of establishment as a small, masonry contractor Mr. Maldonado incorporated and obtained certification with the City of Chicago as a Minority Business Enterprise. As a small minority businessman this certification offered him the opportunity to gain the experience and knowledge necessary to pursue his goals. After several prosperous years of working as a masonry subcontractor for numerous General Contractors in the Chicagoland area once again Mr. Maldonado had greater aspirations for his small MBE firm. He began bidding and performing on masonry projects as a General Contractor. To further his goals and business opportunities Old Veteran Tuckpointing became Old Veteran Construction, Inc. and Mr. Maldonado has been the founder, President and 100% shareholder since 1986. As an emerging small minority businessman Mr. Maldonado has successfully managed a staff from as little as six employees to currently over fifty, several of which have been with OVC for over 10 years.
