    What our clients say

    decontamination and biohazard cleaning services reviews
    Jessie Relford, Richmond, 12/1/2024
    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.

    Austin Hucks, Richmond, 11/1/2024
    I reached out to BioOne because I had raccoons in my attic space and needed to determine what type of cleaning needed to take place after I evicted them. The owner at BioOne Marc was extremely helpful and flexible working with my schedule. He came by to inspect my attic and literally boosted himself into the attic space through my small access door in the ceiling. He crawled his way through the attic across the joists and was able to locate some raccoon feces but it wasn’t much since the raccoons were only up there for maybe a week. He took thorough pictures and removed the feces right on the spot and didn’t recommend that I needed further cleaning service based on his examination. I was extremely impressed with Marc’s friendliness and willingness to go into the attic where other companies were not willing to. I highly recommend Marc and his services!
