I've known Phill and Angela Kirton for a few years now and find them as caring kindhearted people definitely putting the customer first. I highly recommend them.

My experience with Bio-One, from start to finish, was the best. I had no idea what a (damp) basement clean out would cost, but it had to be done. Phil and Angela were kind, realistic, prompt, worked with me to get it into my budget, and then did it in one day with hustle. They're good, good people, running a family-owned business that really cares. Five stars.

I don't often write reviews but Angela, Phil and their team at Bio-One need to be called out for being an amazing, responsive, caring company. A week before Christmas there was an emergency situation that I was made aware of. A situation that needed to be urgently addressed. I live in Boston and the cleanup that needed to be done was in Portland, Oregon. I called Bio-One first on a weekend. This was a hoarding and bio-hazard clean-up. Amazingly, with only 1 days notice they made time for my situation immediately. I flew in to Portland on the Monday night and they were at the location to greet me Tuesday morning. They were on-time, kept to the pricing quotes, were compassionate and thoughtful about what to dispose of and what to keep. They sent pictures and helped me through processing what was happening. I can't say enough good words about this company and the owners. Thank you.

I contacted Bio-One to assess cleaning and decontaminating the attic and basement of my home from years of undetected rodent infestation. And when I say cleaned out, I mean they removed and disposed of all debris, insulation, and unwanted junk from these areas. He then disinfectd both areas with a decontamination enzyme, cleaning shelves/floors/attic beams, even the basement crawlspace. Phil the owner did the work himself, and was a pleasure to work with. All I had to do was mark the items in the basement I wanted to keep, and he took care of the rest, saving me from conducting hazardous cleaning work. Phil was very professional and respectful of both me and my home, and understanding, and he worked very fast (took less than 2 days total). Unlike another company I contacted to do the same work, Bio-One used an effective combination of decontamination/deodorizing products (not just something to mask the odor) as well as and enzyme product to further clean/decontaminate the beams and floors. On top of all that, they removed all the random boxes and junk from my basement whether it was contaminated or not (bonus), and cleaned everything that was to be left behind! Phil and his assistant took steps to ensure there was no mess left behind on the way to/from the attic and basement, and wore industrial PPE gear themselves during the whole process, a mark of true professionals (trust me, you don't want someone cleaning out rodent mess without properly protecting your home as well as themselves, not doing so indicates they don't know what they are doing). I would highly recommend Bio-One if you find unwelcome critters have invaded your home, I only regret I did not call Bio-One sooner. Thank you for helping me reclaim my home, Phil!

Bio-One was easy to communicate with and did an excellent job. They accommodated site specific needs easily and charged a fair price for the quality of work.

"We were very impressed with the two young men who came to deep clean a bedroom that had not been used for a while. They did everything very well down to the walls and floor. They were efficient and fast and had the project done in a timely fashion . They cleaned up after themselves in all areas and did a splendid job. We would highly recommend them to any other friend or relative. The company as a whole were excellent at giving timely information about what would happen and when it would be done. They were very accommodating as to dates and time. Overall, based on their work ethic and quick response, I would recommend them to others who may need the same services. Judy Castellano"

Great work ethic from both crew members! They did an excellent job and I would recommend this service to anyone with my similar situation! Thank you so much! Now, I can open my shed and not feel like some varmint is going to scare me to death! Two thumbs up for sure!! The shed was thoroughly cleaned, disinfected and contents that were contaminated were thrown away and the remaining items were organized and put back by the workers. Glad I found your organization.
