Absolutely incredible experience! I called mid day in search of help for an immediate cleaning job and I had someone at my door step an hour later. Lucas was kind, thoughtful and very thorough with his work. We couldn’t be more thankful for the work he does and his ability to meet it with such kindness. Thank you again.

We were very pleased with the work Bio-One did for us. They cleaned out our attic, which had lots of bat-droppings. They carried furniture and boxes down, cleaned out all the droppings, disinfected the space and painted the floor. They were very professional and did a fantastic job. Highly recommended.

BioOne was a lifesaver for me as I faced a home that had been occupied for over 60 years. The person I was assisting was a hoarder of all things that “might be useful.” A severe illness which added garbage (including bio waste) to the mix pushed everything over the edge. I was overwhelmed with what seemed to be an impossible task. Lucas and his crew achieved the impossible for the price that he quoted me and the amount of time he predicted. The BioOne web site drew me because they seemed to understand the emotional component of their work. Lucas and his crew were sensitive to the emotional toll of letting go of “precious items.” They located and saved important photos and papers, and protected items listed as “must save.” I hope I never face another hoarder clean out, but if I do, BioOne will be the first call that I make. I don’t think you will find a more honest, thorough, and caring firm for this seemingly insurmountable job.

I met these men when they were doing work for a friend of mine…they were courteous with the welfare of the customer in mind.They were discreet as they worked inside an out without broadcasting what their job was. They were very hard workers an the job they did was exceptional an did above an beyond their promise for the client. After what they accomplished I highly recommend this fine business.

I had 10 years of hoarding to clear out of a living space and Lucas and his team made the process as easy as it could have possibly been for me. Not only do they do incredibly quick and thorough work, but they're also incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with. Lucas also let me know that my insurance might cover the service. There's a lot of stigma and shame that comes with a hoarding situation, but Lucas and his team made this process as easy as it could have possibly been. They didn't just clean out a traumatic mess, they helped me restore dignity in the process. I will ABSOLUTELY recommend them any time I have the chance.

Truly the best team! Lucas and his team came to help me in a time when it was hard to ask for help. Their work was impeccable, discreet, and professional. They restored my apartment to a safe, sanitary, and warm place again. Thank you for your work and your understanding!
