More About Us

We are Teessides’ only local preservation company who are members of the PCA. Be sure you are getting the best by using a member of the Property Care Association.

Property inspections are carried out by David Holdsworth partner and surveyor who has passed stringent C.S.R.T exams set by the industry’s examining board. Its a sad fact that most companies surveyors have no qualifications.

Fully Qualified

Check to see if the company you call has a surveyor who has passed the CSRT qualification, if they do not have it, they either cannot pass it or are not prepared for the financial outlay and study, either way they are selling you the customer short.


Crown Damp-proofing are full members of the Property Care Association, which is only allowed after we have been fully vetted for workmanship, health and safety, financial stability, office administration, trading history, surveyors qualifications, insurance and work procedure.

We are the only local company on Teesside and the surrounding areas who have achieved membership of the PCA. A testament to our expertise. We are also members of the Government endorsed Trust Mark scheme.
