Over £430,000 of improvement work is to be carried out across a number of council homes in Dundee.

Councillors are set to approve a series of tenders during a meeting next week, which would see work delivered in Charleston, Lawton Road and at Corso Street sheltered lounge to upgrade roofs, stairs, boilers, decoration and lighting.

The council's construction services division has submitted the best tender for three of the four projects, while Anderson Specialist Contracting in Forfar is bidding for the concrete stair replacements.

Cllr Vari McDonald said: "We have a massive programme of works to ensure that our tenants are living in houses that are fit for the 21st century and as warm, fuel efficient and comfortable as possible.

"These particular works will re-roof 18 houses in Charleston, install 40 replacement gas boilers in the Lawton area, renew and replace steps, landings railings and supporting walls at 31 locations and up-grade the sheltered lounge at Corso Street."

If the tenders are approved, work on all of the projects is expected to start in the next few weeks.
