Safety Environmental Consultants Inc

Asbestos, mold and lead are what Safety Environmental Consultants gets called about — not to remove them, but to find them, test for them, and oversee the work of whoever does. The Salem, New Hampshire firm describes itself as an industrial hygiene and environmental consulting outfit serving homeowners alongside schools, hospitals, commercial buildings and housing authorities, and its site says it has been at that for about two decades. Johnnie M. Lituma is named on the company's bio page as CEO; he runs the asbestos department and, by the company's account, still performs project monitoring and inspections himself. He shows up in the reviews by name. A customer writing in December 2023 said Johnnie worked hard to resolve their case quickly and came in the most reasonably priced of every consultant who quoted the project. Cost came up again in a January 2025 review, which credited the office staff along with the price. The written history is short: three reviews between 2023 and 2025, and a 4-star average across four Google ratings. One 1-star review, posted in October 2023, is not about a job. The writer describes a company car weaving through traffic on I-95 South and a close call merging into the middle lane. The other thing to square up front is tenure — the company's site claims roughly 20 years, while its BBB profile lists 12 years in business, and that BBB page is not accredited and carries no rating. If you have suspected asbestos or mold in a house and want someone to inspect, test and oversee the abatement rather than sell you the removal, this is the kind of firm to call. Ask who will actually be on site for the monitoring, and get the scope and price in writing; cost is what both satisfied reviewers led with.
