When tragedy leaves more than grief behind When a crime or traumatic event happens, life splits into before and after. In those first hours and days,...
I can't say enough good things about this company. All of the people are so compationate, attentive and thoughtful. They were on top of things from the first day of contact through the last. I would never consider working with another company for this type of cleanup and will definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for an excellent outcome. Thank you again Bio-One!!

Unbelievable kindness! Gentle souls who were compassionate and integral; they worked hard to do the job and ease our stress. It is more than a season of kindness; it is clearly a business that cares about the service they provide and the people they serve … what a rare blessing! Thank you!!!

Recently we had a tragic death in the family. The biohazard it made was horrendous and heartbreaking. Phill and his team responded even before the police left the scene. They were compassionate as much as they were efficient. They understood the grief my wife was going through and ‘erased’ the scene so she could enter without being traumatized. Being in law enforcement myself, I know how much hazmat cleanup can cost. BioOnePDX was extremely fair and cost effective. I honestly hope we never have to use them again for obvious reasons but if we did, I know we can trust them to take care of us as if we were part of their own family. Many thanks to a great company run by an amazing and caring husband and wife team!

Society does not teach us that an unattended death is possible, and how challenging it can be. Phill, Angela and their team went above and beyond in their professionalism, courtesy, empathy, compassion, and thorough response to a clean up of a rental apartment after my mother died. A simple example of their care is that Phill reminded me gently that I did not have to re-enter the apartment while it was still a bio-hazard site, I could instead wait a few feet away in the hall as he let himself in. This thoughtfulness ran through all of their efforts to check with me and the landlord about the clean up and restoration process. I hired them for a phase 1 bio-hazard clean up and then for a phase 2 removal of items/deep clean. I don't have words to express how grateful I am for their support through these services at this difficult time. In the property manager's words: "they made it easy for us to replace the carpet and linoleum; there's not a lot to say in the walk through as they left it so clean...they even cleaned the blinds, wow (admiration in his voice as he lowered and raised them". I recommend them with all my gratitude.

From the first call through every interaction and detail afterwards, I felt that we had made exactly the right choice choosing Bio-One. They were patient and kind during a difficult situation, and they were the epitome of professionalism. They worked very hard, with a smile and with generosity, to help us with a tough job. They arrived on time, they communicated well, they knew exactly what they were doing, and the results seem like a miracle. Thank you, Bio-One!

The Bio-One team did an amazing job and completely transformed my apartment in just a few hours! I was in awe. They were thoughtful and thorough and worked well together in a small space with a lot of stuff. They were able to tackle tasks without needing direction and always asked questions when they weren't sure. I highly recommend them.

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!
