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!

I highly recommend this company!! Their quality of customer service is exceptional.. They truly stand by their motto Help first, Business later. One of my family members was in a terrible predicament with a deadline. I called Bio-One El Paso and spoke to Mr Jose Zapata. He took the time to hear our situation, discuss the matter and work quickly with us to resolve our issue within 24 hours. They are truly caring and responsive. They are a great group of people who care about their customers. Thank you to Joe and his staff for helping my family We will forever be grateful!!

I hired Rigo and his crew over a year ago right before Covid for a lot of reasons and they did everything for me. They became family to me really quickly and I’ll never take that back it’s a really great relationship these people do everything and I love them back for all the hard work. After a few months apart I needed more work done to get out of my home and tomorrow they did that for me and I realize that is not their main job but they did it anyway for me that’s a step up their standup people Rigo and everybody in his crew I adore everybody. I would absolutely recommend them for any job I trust him wholeheartedly and that will never waiver ever I am a lifelong friends

Bio-One was a godsend in a time of need - quick, efficient, and most importantly kind during some of the worst days of my life. Everyone who came to safely clear the hazardous remains of a family member went above and beyond to ensure the job was done and to provide support to me and my family. I cannot recommend this service enough, should you have the misfortune to need it.

These guys right here are doing some amazing work! I was so touched by the initial call with Joe who expressed sincere concern for our situation and genuinely comforted us. May these brothers be blessed, guided, and protected by Our Heavenly Father. Their honorable public service careers before embarking on this franchise speaks volumes about their qualification, let alone becoming certified in the collective aspects that make up the unique line of business. Professionals all the way! Equip with all the necessary knowledge, Strong and experienced to handle the most unfathomable situations. Human beings, amazing human beings, with copious amounts of empathy and compassion. Rare, underrated and under recognized. Definitely EL PASO STRONG! The very epitome of the phrase. I am so grateful for the encounter and look forward to doing business with them. I will gladly promote them and would love to nominate them for El Paso Texas number one best business in town. A model example of what a business should be.

    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!

    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!!!

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    What is Hoarding?
    Hoarding is a behavioral pattern characterized by the excessive acquisition of and inability to discard large quantities of objects that cover the living areas of a home and cause significant distress or impairment. 

    Compulsive hoarding behavior has been associated with health risks, economic burdens, and adverse effects on personal relationships. When clinically significant enough to impair functioning, hoarding can prevent typical uses of space so as to limit basic daily activities like moving through the home, eating, and sleeping. It can also put people at risk due to increased risks of injury, fire, and disease.
    Why Hire Bio-One of El Paso To Cleanup Your Hoarding Residence?
    Bio-One of El Paso prioritize concern for the well being of our customers and their families, always following our slogan, “Help First, Business Second.” Bio-One of El Paso soundly reject the business-first mindset of other companies who see people and their families asking for help as vulnerable and exploit the economic opportunity. Our primary goal is to help people improve their lives and begin the process of moving forward.
    What Makes Bio-One of El Paso Different From Other Hoarding Cleanup Companies?
    Bio-One of El Paso sets itself apart from other hoarding cleanup companies in four distinct ways:

    Bio-One of El Paso come to give on-site estimates, never blind, inflated estimates over the phone. This allows us to give an accurate estimate and scope of work.

    Bio-One of El Paso do not give bait & switch quotes. Unlike other companies that lowball their estimates and then ratchet the price up as the job progresses, our experience and expertise allows us to give accurate estimates that reflect what the job will cost.

    Bio-One of El Paso are truly a local company, the owners and employees all call the El Paso area home, too. Other companies take your call from outside our community, and then subcontract your job out to some workers who are neither hoarding specialists nor trained professionals. Many times the contracting company does not even know the subs they have hired.

    Bio-One of El Paso respond to a hoarding cleanup request immediately because we are locally based. We're not heading into the area, we're already here.
    Does Bio-One of El Paso Share Information About Or Notify Any Other Entity Regarding A Hoarding Matter?
    Yes. Bio-One of El Paso offers a regularly-scheduled maintenance program where Bio-One of El Paso return to the residence or property after the initial cleanup and perform follow up services to ensure that it remains in the state it was when we completed the job.
    Does Bio-One of El Paso Offer Any Maintenance Or Follow Up Service After The Initial Hoarding Cleanup?
    Yes. Bio-One of El Paso offers a regularly-scheduled maintenance program where Bio-One of El Paso return to the residence or property after the initial cleanup and perform follow up services to ensure that it remains in the state it was when we completed the job.
    Do I Have To Get A Maid Service After You Are Done To Clean The Property?
    Yes. While the original hoarding cleanup will result in the removal of all necessary/requested items, the hoarding residence will still be in need of a thorough and detailed cleaning, due to the effects caused by the original hoarding situation. Bio-One of El Paso offers a detailed cleaning program to anyone who's interested.
