Thorough Observations and Technical Diagnosis

We take our time to make sure that you’re getting a quality inspection. We walk every room, assess the heating and cooling systems as well as plumbing fixtures like sinks or toilets so there are no problems when it comes time for homeowners insurance.

We not only inspect your house but also explain everything we find during this process which ensures transparency about what might be wrong with each aspect of the property before deciding on any repairs needed going forward.

Highland Home Inspections has been in business since 1989.

Born out of a love relationship with the 100-year-old farmhouse Rick Belliveau bought after moving to Maryland, Rick combined his electrical engineering knowledge, US Navy submarine experience, and natural teaching ability to conduct pre-purchase home inspections for friends and relatives. He attended the Property Inspectors Training Institute course and quickly pursued the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) membership and certification while doing many more inspections on a part-time basis. The growing demand for his inspections resulted in a career move from Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory to a full-time inspections service.

HHI now averages more than 2,000 inspections a year. Over the years, Rick has grown the company to include 10 certified and licensed home inspectors, as well as 2 full-time office managers to quickly meet caller’s needs. The offices are located in Highland, Maryland in Howard County and Prince Frederick, Maryland in Calvert County.

The Highland Home Inspection team is second to none.
