Built for Scotland's city of discovery and its thriving renovation market
Dundee is experiencing a renaissance. Scotland's fourth-largest city, perched on the banks of the River Tay, has undergone a dramatic transformation in recent years. The opening of the V&A Dundee has catalysed a waterfront regeneration that is reshaping the city, creating new residential developments, commercial spaces, and a renewed sense of confidence. For tradespeople, this transformation means opportunity — from fitting out waterfront apartments and renovating properties in the revitalised city centre to working on the steady stream of residential projects in established suburbs like Broughty Ferry, the West End, and Barnhill.
Broughty Ferry — Dundee's affluent coastal suburb on the Tay estuary — is one of Scotland's most desirable addresses, with Victorian and Edwardian villas, elegant seafront properties, and family homes that undergo regular high-specification renovations. The West End, close to the University of Dundee, offers a mix of traditional sandstone tenements and family homes popular with professionals and academics. Dundee's two universities drive a significant market for HMO conversions and student accommodation in areas like Perth Road, Blackness, and Stobswell. The city's growing tech and gaming sector — Dundee is home to the creators of Grand Theft Auto — is attracting young professionals who purchase and renovate properties across the city.
Dundee's property market is one of Scotland's most affordable, which means renovation work is constant — buyers purchase older properties and invest in modernisation rather than paying premium prices for new builds. Beyond the city, the wider Tayside region — including Perth, Arbroath, Montrose, and the Angus countryside — offers tradespeople additional markets for rural property renovations, barn conversions, and farmhouse restorations.

Whether you're quoting for a tenement renovation in the West End, a villa refurbishment in Broughty Ferry, or a waterfront apartment fit-out, QuoteSmith helps you present at the highest level.
