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 was so impressed with your crew. They worked so quickly and efficiently. They found and are still finding things on my list. They're even finding things I either forgot or didn't really remember. I'm enjoying going through the pictures and posting them on Facebook for the family to see the pictures. They even found my oldest brother's baby shoes and he would have been 74 this year. That's just a few things they found. I could go on with things they found. My nephew came the first day and we were texting that night. He texted that they were professional and it's hard to find those kinds of employees. The dumpster service I used asked for their business card because he was going to recommend them for jobs. He told me that he's been on sites that the workers are sitting there when he leaves to dump the dumpster and comes back and they're still sitting there. He said when he comes to my house, your team already has things sitting out and ready to fill the dumpsters again.

"I cannot heap enough praise onto Bio-One of Dayton. They are literal life changers. My father was a chronic hoarder, so when he passed away, I was beside myself knowing how to deal with the piles and piles of stuff everywhere. Enter Bio-One! Not only are they professional, flexible, and diligent, they are lightning fast and, quite frankly, performed miracles. Because of work reasons, I only had three weeks with which to clear the house, yet even so Bio-One was able to handle the job. Almost everything in the house has been taken care of, and a significant amount of it went to charity (something that was important to me!). And their staff are inscrutably honest; they will look for anything of value and turn it over to you. I never had a worry with them on the job and could trust them to work even if I wasn't able to be there. Without them, I would probably only be another room or two (at best) finished, still unable to see the light at the other end of the tunnel. But with Bio-One, I could begin to see that light so quickly. They are a pleasure to work with. And I would recommend them unequivocally to anyone."

Bio-One Dayton provided excellent customer service with outstanding professionalism and communication; among the best I have ever experienced. Andrew and his crew were fantastic, their positive attitude, strong work ethic, and consistent effort to seek our perspective and keep us informed throughout the process was much appreciated. My sister and I enjoyed working with everyone and were grateful for their help guiding us through an unexpected and difficult situation.

Bio-One Review Bio-One Dayton is absolutely the best bio-hazard company, that by far exceeds all 5 other such companies we had give an estimate. They are THE ONLY company that knew what to do & how to cleanup the serious bio-hazard from a death occurring on top of cracked cement floor for 2 1/2 weeks, & THE ONLY company, out of 6 bio-hazard companies, who said the cement needed to be removed to assess & treat the floorboards under the cement & area between the upper condo (where it occurred) & the lower condo unit below. Bio-One Dayton needs to be commended because they stand out far above any of the other bio-hazard companies we dealt with. They are exemplary in their commitment to do what is needed & to do a job right and not cover it up, as all the other companies bid it. Also, they did it for half the price that Aftermath charged who just ""sealed"" (covered up) instead of removing the bio-hazard material! Bio-One Dayton was the only bio hazard company, out of 4 other bio hazard companies we got estimates from, after Aftermath said they certified complete removal of the bio hazard, who said the cement needed to come up to assess damage. We got other estimates because of the stench & other odd suspicious issues (stench & flies) occurring in other units, & we didn't believe the bio-hazard was removed after Aftermath finished & certified it clear of bio-hazard materia. So, Bio-One Dayton was the only one of 6 bio hazard companies that even suggested to take up the cement & check the floorboards underneath. Bio-One did a simple hydrogen peroxide test on top of the supposed ""sealed"" cracks in the cement and confirmed that the bio-hazard still remained. Bio-One Dayton was the only company that said the cement needed to be removed to see the extent of the damage under the cement. They ended up removing the cement floor, 3 floorboards, & also the ceiling drywall in the condo below which all had a lot of bio-hazard material on it. This is after Aftermath certified that the unit was clear of bio-hazard material! Bio-One Dayton in ONE DAY removed the cement floor, scrubbed, sanitized & sealed the joists, replaced 3 plywood floorboards and replaced the ceiling drywall in the unit below, sanitized the walls, & floors all in one day for around $15,000 compared to the $36,000 Afternath charged & was paid & took several days to just covered it up saying they ""stand behind their work"" with a certificate saying that it was free of bio hazard material! Also, Bio-One Dayton did what was needed to remove the bio-hazard without having to wait for insurance approval, whereas Aftermath made us wait for weeks to get insurance approval in between the 2nd & 3rd phases of cleaning, during which other units became damaged by their taking so long. How is it a funeral home would refer Aftermath is beyond me since they don't even do the king of work required to remove all bio-hazard material such as in our case. So thankful Bio-One Dayton knew enough of what needed to be done and was willing to do it & could do the hard work needed to do the job right. Aftermath doesn't even remove cement or flooring needed in order to clean & sanitize the secondary affected areas which we contracted them to do & they said they did. No other company thought to test with hydrogen peroxide, no other company said the cement floor needed to come up or the floorboards and space between the floors checked and the ceiling below needed to be looked at. Apparently, the hazard training Bio-One provides is far better than any of the training other companies receive. (Makes me wonder about the training of other bio-hazard companies.) Thank you to Bio-One for your excellent, thorough & complete service. You are the only company I would trust to do Bio-hazard clean up. All other companies would have used hydroxyl generators or ozone machines, except Aftermath who didn't even use those. All other companies would have covered up & neglected to remove & would have left considerable bio-hazard material remaining. This is hard to understand. That is why Bio-One needs to be commended as THE BEST BIO-HAZARD CLEANING COMPANY!

I just recently had this company clean out of house for me. They were extremely professional and well worth the cost. Great group to work with and I would recommend them over and over again. Jonathan and Andrew were amazing to work with and even when we had a hiccup they took care of everything. The house looks absolutely wonderful. God Bless them for the work they do! If you are considering getting work done, I would recommend having Bio-One Dayton do the dirty work for you.

Grieving the death of a family member is hard enough, and handling the aftermath of such can be overwhelming. When my father passed away at home, Bio-One Dayton was able to perform a thorough clean-up of the house within a few days. Jonathan and Andrew, who led the clean-up process, were both amazing, kind, patient, and professional. Working with Bio-One Dayton has felt like much more than a simple business transaction, as you can tell this is a company that truly cares about its customers and providing the best experience for them. When our insurance company denied the claim for the clean-up, Jonathan and Bio-One Dayton fought for our case and were able to get the claim accepted. They have lifted a huge weight off our shoulders not only immediately following my father's death, but also through their continued support and communication during the claims/payment process.

When speaking with the owners, it was quickly apparent that they are very kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to recommend Bio-One.
