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.
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.

I see why Mark has a 5 star rating. I had the pleasure of speaking to him over the phone. I have not used services as of yet as we are not sure of the course of action yet on my part. Mark spent a total of 32 minutes with me on the phone listening to my special situation, called a competitor of his thinking he may be better suited for the job, called me back to follow up for 15 more minutes. With the situation I have many people write others off as crazy or made up in your head, especially doctors, yes doctors of all people. Mark listened and offered suggestions and knew of one former client of his in the same situation. He cares about people in general and has empathy and compassion. In the even that I do need this type of service I will certainly use him and write another review but I felt just this interaction with him speaks volumes. Thank you Mark for being a listening ear and a compassionate caring empathetic human. You didn’t write me off when all others have. I thank you sir!

Marc was great with communication and very understanding about the needs in the house. His team were meticulous, and respectful which removed a lot of stress from the process.

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.

Marc was awesome! He got rid of the smoke smell in my house super quick. Now it smells nice and fresh. Definitely recommend him for any smoke smell problems.

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!
