Manager

David Abell (dabell@bibens.com)

David Abell got his first taste of home repair with a summer spent stripping the family’s 1830s post and beam farm house down to open framing before putting it all back together again from foundation to roof. From there it was a natural progression to the local hardware and lumberyard where he spent four years helping customers and contractors with their own renovation projects.

In 2008, looking for a move to Burlington, he joined Bibens Ace Essex where he helped setup the brand new store and helped make it the local destination for good customer service and home repair advice.  He has managed Bibens Ace Burlington since 2016, where he has been helping New North End residents with their own home projects.
