BRIAN BIGELOW

Owner

Living in Lompoc CA in Southern California, Brian sought out a job as a carpenter and began a career working for a custom home builder. Brian learned from the beginning the craft of complex and intricate home building while working on multi-million dollar homes in the Santa Barbara area for over 10 years. That experience is not typical for most carpenters let alone General Contractors. Brian traveled to Arizona, New Mexico and eventually Davis CA working on projects from large estates to subdivision tract homes and commercial framing. Brian brings this extensive knowledge of 30 years of hands on building to Pacific Craft Builders.
Brian lives in Davis, Ca raising his two youngest children.  He enjoys kayaking, biking, cooking and general mischief with his friends and family. 

ADAM ABILGAARD

Owner

In the early 1980’s Adam was hired to be a carpenter apprentice on a production framing crew in Sacramento and he hasn't turned back since. Within a year, Adam was running his own rough framing crew and working on many production housing tracts in the greater Sacramento area, building hundreds of homes from the ground up through the 1980’s.  In 1993 he acquired his General Contractor License as Abildgaard Construction. Adam continued to keep a crew of up to 20 carpenters and built custom homes, commercial buildings and remodels from 1993 to 2007. Adam met Brian Bigelow on a job site and became interested in starting a new company in Davis together where they could use their combined experience of over 60 years to service the community in remodeling and home additions. Today Adam is  responsible for the bidding, estimating and operations of the company. Construction has brought him all over Northern California, Oregon and Maui and has made dozens of friends along the way.
 
 Married since 1990, Adam lives with his wife in Davis, California.  He has three children, two cats and three dogs.
