About Highland Property Maintenance
Property maintenance from someone who has been the landlord.
Tom Ross founded Highland Property Maintenance after years buying, renovating, and managing rental property in the UK. He moved to Nova Scotia and recognised the same problem he had encountered back home: finding a tradesperson who actually shows up, charges what they said, and does the job properly.
He has been on both sides of this. As a landlord, he has chased tradespeople who never materialised, received invoices that bore no resemblance to the original quote, and waited three weeks for a job that took two hours.
Highland Property Maintenance was built to be the service he always wished existed.
Every job is fixed price, quoted in writing within 48 hours of assessment. Tom is never booked more than two weeks out. Every piece of work is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
How It Works
There is no call centre, no subcontractors you have never met, and no account manager who has never set foot in your property. When you contact Highland Property Maintenance, you deal directly with Tom — the person who will assess the job, give you the quote, and carry out the work.
That means consistent standards, direct accountability, and no information getting lost in the middle.

What You Can Expect
When you invite someone to work on your property, you are trusting them with something that matters — whether that is your home, your investment, or your livelihood. Highland Property Maintenance is built around the understanding that trust is earned by doing what you say, charging what you quoted, and leaving every job in a better state than you found it.

Our Mission
To be the most reliable property maintenance contractor in Halifax — the one that landlords, Airbnb hosts, and homeowners recommend without hesitation because they know exactly what they are going to get before the job even starts.
Tom measures every job against one question: if he were still the landlord, would he hire this service? The pricing, the communication, the documentation, and the standard of work all have to clear that bar.
That is not a complicated mission. But it is one worth holding to.
