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.
Many many many thanks to Mark and his wonderful team of professionals who took care of my father‘s home after his passing. The entire job was completed in five days and was conducted with the utmost dignity and respect. The home had a lot of stuff to clean out and sort through; and Mark and his team did an absolutely wonderful job going through each box, every drawer and every cabinet in order to see what should be kept and what could be thrown away. Not only did they do a fantastic job with the home, but I personally was able to help one of his workers with a solar system that we had installed and he was able to remove it safely and use it for his own. Thank you Mark for the amazing job that you and your team did!

Mark and his crew were incredibly professional and thorough, and under very difficult and sensitive circumstances. I generally do not leave reviews, but I feel that strongly about how helpful they were and I want others to know as well. I honestly cannot recommend them highly enough.

At the worst time of my families life, this company made what was anticipated to be the worst thing in the world to do the easiest part of this tragedy. From contacting the company and speaking with Mark to his team everything was handled professionally, with empathy, and respectfully. Chase and Chloe's response at the house was liken to having your friends come help you deal with a terrible situation. They made me feel supported, they were informative and made what I feared to be the worst part of dealing with a suicide the easiest so far. I highly recommend this company that helps you deal with the cleanup as well as other things you just don't know about when someone dies in this manner. I rarely do reviews because it's not often I feel so passionate about something a business has done. This company exceeded my expectations and truly does what no one else ever wants to do. I'm beyond grateful for the as individuals and a company!

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.

Marc goes above and beyond in his assessment of your needs, even if you end up not needing his company. Between a phone consultation and on-site visit, he spent at least two hours examining our previous house for rodent activity. He thoroughly examined every room, including climbing around our attic and through the crawlspace, taking detailed photos/notes to explain his findings. I felt more than comfortable with the results after discussing everything with Marc, and truly appreciate the time he spent on someone who wasn't even a paying customer.
