Tilbury Douglas has successfully completed the refurbishment of Claver House in Dundee for the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).

The project involved a comprehensive refurbishment of the DWP's call handling centre, encompassing the replacement of lighting, redecoration, installation of new flooring, and the renewal of welfare facilities.

To minimise disruption to staff, the project was delivered in two phases, ensuring the continued operation of the building throughout the refurbishment.

Tilbury Douglas implemented several measures to ensure a safe and efficient construction process. These included the installation of a 60m long, 4m high acoustic screen in the main hall to minimise noise disruption and the use of fume extraction equipment to control dust and fumes.


The successful completion of the project ahead of schedule demonstrates Tilbury Douglas' commitment to efficient project delivery and client satisfaction.

Barry O'Hagan, Regional Director – Scotland at Tilbury Douglas, commented: "We are delighted to have completed this project ahead of programme, delivering a high-quality fit-out while maintaining a live environment for DWP staff. This achievement highlights our team's dedication and expertise in delivering complex refurbishments with minimal disruption."

"This project marks another successful collaboration between Tilbury Douglas and the Department for Work and Pensions, building on our extensive experience in the civil government sector. It reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional service and innovative, sustainable solutions across the UK," added O'Hagan.
