Marc Garber
Owner
Marc Garber, owner of Bio-One of Richmond, is a ninth-generation Virginian and father of three. Marc was born in Richmond and raised in Roanoke and Northern Virginia before returning to Richmond in 2002. Marc holds degrees from Radford University and George Mason University School of Law. With 20 years of experience working in healthcare, and 4 years of bio-hazard & hoarding experience, Marc is passionate about helping fellow Virginians in their time of need and contributing to the local community. He is an alumni of the Chesterfield Police Citizens Academy, and Hanover County Citizens Emergency Response Team (CERT). Marc & his team love finding lost treasures and returning them to clients, as well as compassionately helping people who are experiencing tragedy - we can't fix everything, but we can take at least care of at least one issue or two, assisting with piece of mind. Favorite charities include Children's Hospital of Richmond, CARITAS Richmond, and Richmond Habitat ReStore (part of Habitat for Humanity). We often donate items clients don't need.
From my first contact with Marc everything was done professionally and compassionately. The crew of Chase, Cole, Chris, Sidney and Chloe went above and beyond my expectations. Everyone was willing to make changes as we went along out of compassion and understanding for my sister-in-laws. They even went so far as to try and capture the cat that had gotten into the crawl space under the house. After being with us for 2 weeks we all became friends. They handled the valuables and collectibles with the utmost care. I will have them back this summer for a finally clean out. I can't find the words to express how wonderful an experience we had with this company. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars isn't really enough!

Marc was so professional and supportive through a process we never thought we would need to have. The space was cleaned and checked thoroughly and I feel so much better with their help. I highly recommend Marc and his team!

This company is Qualified, Thorough, and Professional! But what really sold us was their humility and compassion to our situation. We needed a cleanup company during a tragedy and there was no way of getting around it! We consulted with a few companies and Bio-One Richmond was our choice! They talked us through the cleanup process, were sensitive to our needs and alleviated stress. Unfortunately companies take advantage of people in such circumstances- all about the bottom line and no concern for people. Bio-One Richmond was AMAZING! And their estimate was half the cost of the other companies! We highly recommend Bio-One Richmond!!

I have nothing but great things to say about Marc and his team. We were in a very tight spot with time and finding someone to clean a hoarding space. Marc made sure he was able to fit us into his tight schedule and complete the job in a timely manner. He and his team were very responsive and professional throughout the entire process.

I had a lot of rodent waste in my attic and knee walls under dormers. I called Bio One Richmond and Marc and Chase came to do the inspection and estimate. They both have a great personality and we’re very professional. Chase headed up the work and did a fantastic job. I was so impressed with his easy going personality and his work ethic. He had to remove lots of waste and insulation, spray, paint, reinstall insulation and plug gaps in the eaves in an extremely hot attic. He never once complained. His work was very neat and he cleaned up behind himself. I didn’t have to do a thing! And, on his way out he removed a fallen tree that was on my gate. He is the supervisor and sets a great example for his employees. I am so appreciative of a job well done! I highly recommend this company! I am a very happy customer!

Bio-One provided excellent service throughout the cleanup process. Mark was responsive to calls and text messages. His crew got in fast in response to a short timeframe on my part, did excellent work, and communicated clearly and often throughout the process. Mark worked hard to try to find the most affordable deal for me, and I definitely thought he and Bio-One went above and beyond to be professional and kind during a difficult period for our family.

Amazing to work with. I discovered a terrible hoarding situation with a family member. I discovered Bio-One and gave them a call. Marc was wonderful to work with. We met at the home and he took several hundred photos. Marc came out and we met for an hour and half. He reviewed everything with us in complete detail. I had met with another company which consisted of a walk thru by the foreman and a 3-4 line estimate from the owner. Although considerably lower I opted for Bio -One. Best decision I have made in a long time. His project Chase was extremely caring and professional. He even caught a terrified kitty I couldn't get near. Kitty was my family member's biggest concern. She is being boarded and content.. These folks genuinely care about their clients. I could not have asked for better service than we received. Thanks Bio-One for getting us through this terrible situation........
