When tragedy, trauma, or an unexpected event turns your world upside down, cleanup is often the last thing on your mind. Yet someone has to handle it...
I don't think anyone ever thinks about needing biohazard cleanup until you do, and then it's a strange thing to have to navigate and usually not during a great time. The team at BioOne of Bethesda was incredible - during a stressful time, they were compassionate, professional, and it is obvious they genuinely care about the work they do. I was so blown away by the outcome - a situation I thought may be unfixable is now not only habitable but actually thoroughly clean, and has been restored to its original condition. Again, the people who operate and work with the company are genuinely kind and really care which in a time of distress really helps to make the process seem manageable. - Additionally, they came out in one day to give a quote and returned the very next day to clean - again very much lessening the stress. No offense ... but I hope i dont need the service again - but if I ever do I will absolutely call them and suggest others do as well.

Bio-one was prompt, professional and incredibly thorough. Uduak helped us through the process of dealing with a challenging situation with professionalism and an eye for detail. We can’t thank them enough for their services.

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!

With a baby on the way, my husband and I were so overwhelmed with our apartment. We couldn't find space for everything and it felt like it was in constant disarray. Bio-One came in and overhauled the entire place, getting us ready and feeling good. They helped bring stuff to storage for us, helped us part ways with things we didn't need, and left us with a sparkling clean and much roomier apartment than when they first started. I am beyond grateful for my in-laws getting this service done as a ore-baby gift. I'm not sure what we would've done without them.

Uduak did an outstanding job with our inspection and identified the perfect cleaning solution for our basement, which had rodent feces from being vacant before our purchase. Kay and Akan were amazing, meticulously following small particle cleaning protocols. Excellent service—I highly recommend them to anyone in need of these services!

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.
