Title: Home Performance Advisor
Hometown: Lancaster, VA
Ed Clarke from The Drying Co.

Ed has been part of The Drying Co. team since 2018. He has a background in construction and is a third generation home builder having constructed over 1,000 energy efficient homes from Greater Richmond to Hampton, VA. His Certifications include being a Class A Contractor.

Ed’s background has given him an understanding of all types of buildings from commercial properties to historical restorations. This experience allows him a comprehensive understanding of building construction and building science. Coupled with his passion for solving problems, Ed is able to listen to a homeowner’s concerns and goals and find the root of the symptoms to provide a long-term solution.

He enjoys facing new challenges every day, with the understanding that no home is exactly like another. He enjoys his continued growth through weekly training at our office and outside training on building science and best practices for home energy efficiency. He is proud to be “part of a team of down to earth people, who put the customer first every day.” He would tell any potential applicants that “this is a company who knows how to fix problems, with plenty of experience doing so and a commitment to customer service.”

In his free time, Ed enjoys spending time with his family, Tournament Bass Fishing, and is the Owner/Crew Chief for his son’s racing team in NASCAR Whelen All American Series.
