They did an outstanding job! They were professional and courteous, and the results were everything we hoped for. I highly recommend them.

Monica, Roger, and the cleaning crew were so professional, thorough, and kind. I appreciated that they were willing to follow the "small particle cleaning" protocol an environmental consultant had given me, and they followed the protocol to the letter. They completed the work efficiently and effectively, taking great care with our home. But more than that, they really seemed to care about our family and our specific cleaning needs for our family’s health concerns. I really hope not to need this type of cleaning again in the future, but if I do, I will absolutely call Bio One Bethesda again. What a great service experience!

Our family is deeply grateful for the skilled support of the Bio-One of Bethesda team. Uduak, the head of the company, is a registered nurse with deep understanding of the complexity of cleaning/organizing an individual who has been a multi-year hoarder & has other mental health issues as well. She worked with family members as well as with caregivers to develop a clean-up plan that included both short term & long term goals. She built rapport with our family member & engaged her in planning the clean-up so that the process was completed WITH HER rather than to her. Caregivers were enlisted as allies to help our family member resist hoarding in the future. In addition, Uduak & her team gathered & organized many years of paperwork that had accumulated in a car, enabling us to better understand & plan. Bio-One brought unique strengths to the clean-up process. Deep skills of empathy, planning & competence combined to yield positive results that we hope will be long-lasting.

There is damage to my home which caused a hazardous matter & needed to be cleaned. I researched & located Bio One, and Monica was the friendly face I met @ my home. I hate not knowing names, but she was accompanied with a very nice gentleman. Monica was so kind, and their services great!!!! They were so professional, & just the interaction alone made me feel that everything will be okay. It is really the people who make the company. Kudos to both of you for a job well done. Monica, a special thanks to you!

I have known the owner, Uduak for over 10years. Her character and work ethic speaks for itself. This is the same standard she applies to her business. She is compassionate, thoughtful, dedicated , and treats people with dignity. I would be confident to use her company Bio-one for any cleaning services.

The crew took all of our concerns to heart. When the unexpected arose, they solved it willingly and creatively. We were in good hands from beginning to end. Very grateful and satisfied.
Mary POA, Frederick County, 3/1/2025
Bio One saved me and my mother’s lives, we both struggle with mental health and our hoarding situation had reached its breaking point, but when we enlisted the help of Bio One we felt we were in good hands. Uduak is so kind and non judgmental it felt like she truly cared about our health and safety, like we were inviting a family member into our home to help with our troubles. We be forever in your debt Bio One. Thank you!
