Jose Pineda's Bio
Jose Pineda came to America at age 19 from Honduras. Shortly after his arrival, he started as a helper sweeping floors for a contracting company, AJ Greenwich. Young with a desire to learn more he quickly moved up in the ranks within the company. By 23 years old Jose was a Foreman managing multi-million dollar townhouse projects. He learned from the best of the best highly skilled carpenters from all over the world. With a growing family and a beautiful wife to care for, Jose decided to start his own company Maya Builder’s Corp. As a self-performing contractor with a growing book of business, he saw early success. Jose and Lance met through a mutual friend when Lance was looking for new subcontractors. Upon meeting, Lance was thoroughly impressed by Jose’s knowledge, efficiency, and calm demeanor. After being a subcontractor to Turn Key for 2 years amongst catering to his own clients, Lance aggressively pursued Jose to join Turn Key as he thought they could do more together than working individually. Jose listened to Lance’s requests but politely declined for about 2 years and planned to move his family down south. Lance insisted Jose stay in NYC metro area and build Turn Key alongside him. In August 2017 Jose closed Maya Builder’s Corp after purchasing a home in NJ. Jose joined Turn Key in September 2017 as the director of field operations and Turn Key has seen a lot of success due to this partnership. When Jose is not at work leading Turn Key’s team he is at home leading his family. A man of few words, Jose enjoys fishing in his downtime when he is not on family duty.
