Founded in 2005 as a small family-run business, Sheriff Construction has grown into a leading provider of bespoke roofing and brickwork solutions. Based in Luton, Bedfordshire, we work with many of the UK’s major building contractors and housebuilders, delivering projects across London and the South East in sectors including commercial, education, public health and residential development.

From the start, we’ve been driven by a commitment to quality, professionalism and reliability. Our services bring together expert workmanship, compliance with the latest industry standards, excellent value for money and an unwavering dedication to health and safety.

We manage a wide range of projects, from smaller bespoke builds to multi-million-pound contracts valued at over £7 million. Every project- regardless of size – is handled with the same care, attention to detail, and pride in our work. That’s how we’ve built lasting relationships with our clients and earned a reputation for excellence, professionalism and trust.

As we continue to grow, we’ve structured our operations to reflect our evolving strengths. Sheriff Construction now focuses solely on our roofing division, while our brickwork expertise is delivered through our sister company, Sheriff Brickworks.

We’re proud to be a socially responsible and environmentally aware company. We invest in our team, champion training and apprenticeships, give back to local communities, and play our part in building a more sustainable future.

Leadership Team

Ekrem Mahmutaj

MANAGING DIRECTOR
Growing up as part of a small agricultural community in rural Albania, Ekrem can count Shepherd, Tobacco plant picker and soldier among the list of his first jobs!

After moving to the UK in 1999, Ekrem initially worked as a labourer to put himself through college before mastering his skills as a bricklayer. Founding what was originally ‘Sheriff Builders’ as a small family business back in 2005, Ekrem has since led, developed and grown the company into the much larger and more specialised enterprise that Sheriff has now become.

Today, Ekrem takes overall responsibility for the strategic direction of the business, leading on several key areas such as client relationships, contract negotiation, team development, sales strategy, forecasting and much more. 

He says: “My aim for the company is to strategically manage its growth while continuing to ensure our clients benefit from Sheriff’s advanced levels of account management, professionalism and expertise.”

Arsim Mahmutaj

CONTRACTS MANAGER (ROOFING)
Arsim moved to the UK when he was 14 years-old, joining the student population at Ashcroft High School in Luton. Upon finishing school, Arsim took some carpentry courses and joined Sheriff as an apprentice. When Sheriff branched out into flat-roofing some years ago, Arsim was among the first within our team to qualify as an approved installer of the systems the company was using. 

After working for many years as a site Foreman, Arsim is now a shareholder at Sheriff Construction and in 2019 was promoted to Contracts Manager, meaning he is now responsible for overseeing several programmes of work within our roofing division.

Shahin Mahmutaj

Contracts Manager (Brickwork)
Coming from an agricultural background, Shahin completed his training as a bricklayer and worked as part of a bricklaying gang (alongside Sheriff’s Managing Director) long before Sheriff ever existed as a company. 

Being part of Sheriff’s story from day 1, Shahin worked his way up to become a site Foreman and, following a company restructure in 2019, was promoted to Contracts Manager with specific responsibility for our brickwork division. He is also a shareholder in the company.
