Our History

​ABTECH was started by Kent Abell in 1989.  After 30 years of Business the company still thrives off the one principle and goal that was set years ago, Never say die and never give up!  ABTECH originated from the Owner's last name ABell and TECH.   Kent started as an electrician in Jeffersonville Indiana when he was 16 years old.  He worked for local contractors and Louisville Gas & Electric as a lineman building electrical distribution substations.  He moved to Ohio in the 70's and was a Leader for Way International in Managing Electrical Construction and Maintenance Services for many facilities.  In 1981 he was a partner with an Electrical Company in one of the Worst Economies in US History.  After 6 Years in Business the Company grew to be the leader and premier electrical company in the Kentuckiana Area.  After 8 years, Kent decided to start ABTECH in 1989. His Passion for Excellence and Commitment to Client Fulfillment has cemented ABTECH as a leader in the electrical industry ever since.
