Tilbury Douglas is a British construction business with its head office in London.

The company was originally founded in 1884 as the London and Tilbury Lighterage Company Limited, and retained the Tilbury name until 2001. From 1991 it was known as Tilbury Douglas following a merger with RM Douglas, but in 2001 rebranded as Interserve plc. The name change partly reflected a shift in focus during the 1990s towards maintenance and facilities management services sectors, and this continued in the 2000s, buoyed by further acquisitions.

However, financial issues led to Interserve going into administration in March 2019. In a pre-pack deal, the main operating businesses were immediately sold to a newly incorporated company owned by lenders, Interserve Group Ltd, and a break-up of the company followed. Interserve's facilities management business was sold to Mitie in December 2020, and RMD Kwikform was sold in October 2021 to France's Altrad.

In March 2021, Interserve resurrected the Tilbury Douglas brand for its construction and engineering services businesses, and in June 2022, Tilbury Douglas fully separated from Interserve Group and became a standalone construction contracting company.^[1]
