Queens, New York, native Maureen Fritch was working as a registered nurse on Long Island when she began dabbling in renovation projects. Her success in developing, building and renovating residential properties led her to open Fritch Construction in 1993 and E. Electrical Contracting, LLC in 2004.
Over the years, Maureen has done a good deal more than establish a profitable general contracting business recognized for its honesty and integrity. She has broken new ground in the profession for women and minorities.
She is one of the founders and the president emeritus of the Women Builders Council, Inc. (www.wbcnyc.org), which promotes construction opportunities for women-owned businesses. Maureen assists member firms in procuring opportunities and with legislative initiatives, advocacy and mentoring. Numerous organizations have recognized her efforts and the difference her work has made in the lives of many women.
