    James McArthur

    James McArthur is 51 years old and was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Being the second of three children from a single mother, he learned the values of hard work, caring, love, and service to the community at a very young age. He even attended college twice a week while still in high school. James started his own small company, then another, and another, until he came across Bio-One. He instantly fell in love with the motto: "help first, business second." James grew up believing that "we all should be attached to something greater than ourselves." He views Bio-One as his chance to help people, and the community, on what is most likely a day of tragedy. People always ask him, "how can you do something like this every day?" His answer has always remained the same: “If I can shield a family from further exposure by absorbing the trauma and saving the memory of their loved one, I’m going to.” It gives him renewed strength and energy to know he’s made a difference.

    decontamination and biohazard cleaning services reviews
    Cayden Halligan, Philadelphia, 2021
    James is wonderful. He is professional and does amazing work but what was such a blessing is that he was so so kind. The clean up he did for us was really quite disgusting and he didn’t bat an eye. He was very clear in his communication and did great work. I just can’t stress how kind he is-he’s got wonderful energy and his way of being really made the terrible experience of having to get a biohazard in my dads home cleaned much less traumatic. I can’t recommend James more highly.
