Media features Sheriff Construction as a top UK provider

At least two online media outlets have just published articles about Sheriff Construction, recognising our company as one of the leading installers and suppliers of flat-roofing systems and brickwork services in the UK.

Both the UK Herald and London Journal picked up the story of our 17 years in the industry and recent success, noting the national recognition our company has gained for delivering exceptional work on commercial and residential projects and for our pursuit of innovation. Read the full story in this week’s blog.

UK Herald 

The UK Herald, which publishes impartial business, technology, politics and health news and analysis, opens its article by stating:

“Sheriff Construction, a recognised leader in construction, is celebrating over 17 years of excellence in the industry and its largest commercial contract. Founded in 2005 by Ekrem Mahmutaj, Sheriff Construction has become nationally recognised as one of the leading installers and suppliers of specialist flat-roofing systems and brickwork services across the United Kingdom.”

After describing our work, extensive portfolio and the commitments our highly trained technicians put into delivering our service, the piece goes on to say:

“Today, the company is projected to reach £20M in turnover this year with a small in-house team with over 100 sub-workers. As Managing Director, Ekrem brings years of experience building relationships with suppliers and developers to the company as its main driving force. Ekrem works alongside two brothers, including Shahin Mahmutaj, who is in charge of the bricklaying side of the business, and Arsim Mahmutaj, who oversees roofing. Together, the trio leads installation and supply chains for flat-roofing systems and brickwork services across the United Kingdom, and relentlessly pursues a reputation for innovative construction.”

London Journal

The London Journal is an independent media outlet that focuses on national and international trending news content from business, education, health, science, environment and more.

Following the same story of Sheriff’s 17 year journey, its feature adds:

“Sheriff Construction’s commitment to excellence has recently been recognised with its largest commercial contract to date. The company secured the brickwork contract valued at over £6.1 million from a major UK-based housebuilder for a five-acre regeneration site in Woolwich, London. The contract promises up to two years of work as the company manages the masonry work for approximately 340 new homes in apartment complexes ranging from 2.5 to 15 stories in height.

“With its exceptional reputation and commitment to excellence, Sheriff Construction is set to continue leading the way in innovative construction and delivering outstanding results for its clients.”

Considering our company started out as a small family business back in 2005, seeing these tributes in print really makes us think about how far we’ve come since then. Congratulations to all for being part of our amazing team.

Shout out to our suppliers (part 2)

A couple of weeks ago, we shared the first of our ‘Shout out to our suppliers’ blog series, in which we are recognising some of the brilliant suppliers who have been supporting Sheriff over the years.

While our first blog focussed on roofing and safety systems, today we’re turning our attention to two suppliers who, between them, are providing us with most of our masonry requirements. Keep reading to find out who they are.

Digitising our workforce management for improved control, safety and efficiency

Sheriff Construction has recently introduced the Causeway ‘Donseed’ digital workforce management system across both our brickwork and roofing divisions.

Usually used by companies much larger than us, we took the decision to keep up with this latest technology, which is giving us greater control of our sites, improving safety and increasing efficiency. Find out more in this week’s blog.

Shout out to our suppliers (part 1)

Arriving on the construction scene as a small gang of builders back in 2005, we have grown into a much larger enterprise that now comprises of two construction companies (Sheriff Construction and Sheriff Brickworks) plus two property development companies.

We could not have managed this level of growth without the fantastic suppliers that have supported us along the way, often for many years. So, we thought it was about time we used our blog to shine the spotlight on some of them. Read on for part 1 of this ‘shout out to our suppliers’ series.

Enhancing safety and efficiency on site with G decking

Falling from heights is the number one cause of fatal and non-fatal incidents in the construction sector in the UK. That’s why it’s really important for construction companies like ours to keep up with advancements in safety technologies.

Among the numerous innovations that are happening in our industry, G decking has emerged as something of a game-changer, not only reducing the risks associated with working at heights but also streamlining workflows and boosting overall productivity. Read on to find out more.

Men’s Health Week special: Time to get cancer aware

This week (10th – 16th June) is Men’s Health Week. Organised by the Men’s Health Forum, the week seeks to encourage all men to talk about and address any health concerns they may be experiencing.

When we think about health risks in construction, we usually consider things like physical injuries, musculoskeletal disorders or lung issues caused by exposure to dust and pollutants. But did you know that construction also has the largest burden of occupational cancer amongst the industrial sectors? Please read this week’s blog for some advice on what you can do to reduce the risks and/or catch cancer early.

What are the pros and cons of Brownfield sites?

With the housing crisis consistently listed among the top five issues facing the UK, it’s been interesting to note what the two main political parties are saying about this in the run up to the general election.

While the conservative party have not revealed many housing-related plans as yet, Labour are promising to build 1.5m new homes in the first five years of a labour government and say that brownfield sites will be the number one priority. As a subject that’s close to our business, we thought we’d use this week’s blog to explore the pros and cons of building on brownfield sites.

Everybody’s talking about the Big Weekend!

In case you missed it, Radio 1’s Big Weekend just came to our home town, Luton – entertaining over 100,000 people during three days of fantastic live music – including performances from Rudimental, Raye, Chase & Status, Ella Henderson, Olly Alexander and, of course, Sunday’s stunning headliner, Coldplay.

While the performances and tunes are still whirling around our heads, we think there are also a few lessons we can all take from how well this event was executed. Take a look at this week’s blog for more.
