I didn’t know what to expect when I contacted Bio One, but quickly realized it was the best thing that I could have done! Bio One responded quickly, to what I can only describe as a harrowing experience! The whole team was quick to react, knowledgeable, and efficient. As sensitive as the issue was they knew how to be professional and acted accordingly to where all parties benefited. I would highly recommend Bio One, should you encounter a similar situation!

Thank you, Zapata Brothers! My Granddaughters are members of a Cheer Team that’s been ravaged by influenza and respiratory illnesses, after the Holidays. There are several groups that belong to this organization and they compete locally, regionally, and also at national competitions by invitation. After numerous discussions about the root causes of contagion and continuous illness within each team, my daughter contacted Joe Zapata and asked for his thoughts about the problem. Bio-One came to the gym, assessed the facility, and immediately sprang into action. They expertly disinfected all surfaces and equipment and they made some recommendations to eliminate the problems that were being experienced. The Zapata Brothers donated their services and everyone appreciates their goodwill gesture and their excellent service. Triple Threat Cheer thanks and salutes you, BIO-ONE of El Paso!

PHENOMENONAL!!!! Professional, compassionate, friendly, efficient, effective, timely, communicative, honest, and a good work ethic! Shout out and thank you to John, Joe, Eric, Larry and the entire Bio One team and their affiliates! Well worth more than five stars. Bottom line: There pricing is reasonably affordable and they are willing to work with you on payment options. You could hire a cheaper company. However, the quality and care you receive from the BioOne team, is priceless. With grace and compassion, they make an extremely stressful situation more managable. They not only do the job but share resources, information and conversations to create sustainable changes. They are happy people and a joy to work with! I was visiting a parent from out of town. I called Bio One for hoarding clean up of their house. John answered my phone call immediately and was able to come assess the house three hours later. My parent kept explaining and apologizing as we walked through the house. John was kind and compassionate, listened to them and was nonjudgemental. He made my parent feel understood, validated, and safe. My parent trusted John and relaxed. THIS WAS KEY for them to find the courage to say yes to John and Bio One cleaning the hoard out. John also noticed (my grandfather's) veteran items and as a veteran himself connected with my parent on this topic and offered us a wonderful military discount. As I was in town for a short time, John and his team were flexible with my schedule and I was able to book a cleaning ASAP. John and Joe were outstanding with communication over the next few days. I recommend using color-coded Post-It notes for labeling items in hoarding house situations. My parent and I went through the house and labeled items with the word ""keep"" on orange notes, ""trash"" on pink notes, etc. This helped my family and the team go quickly through the job. Three days later when the team came they were amazing with communicating with me over text and phone calls. They asked questions, brought up any issues to my attention, kept me informed of where they were with their work. My parent had dogs and without asking, Larry (Bio One team) took care of them. He made sure they had water, shade, snacks and plenty of love! Eric noticed my parent's lawn movers and without judging the multiple amounts, connected with my parent on small engine repairs. Overall, Bio One comes with my highest recommendation. Two months later seeing the mental transformation and awareness of my parent is a gift. My family is motivated to make life long changes and to me that's worth everything. I would hire the El Paso Bio One team in a heartbeat. This is the first review I have posted because the results were life-changing!!!
