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.
After witnessing a local girls football team that’s backed by Sheriff Construction triumph just a couple of weeks ago, this weekend we were thrilled to see two more of our sponsored teams soar to the top of their game.
Both FC Polonia (Luton) U11s and Stevenage Futsal Ballers U12s have achieved some amazing results throughout the season, culminating with Cup Final wins this Sunday! Take a look at our quick-read blog for more.
After months of work developing a small apartment complex in North Street, Luton, our development team recently offered to help out at the neighbouring Luton Central Seventh-day Adventist Church.
Working within our sister company, Limon Homes, the team took some time out from their normal jobs to tidy up the church roof, complete some external painting and ensure the boundary wall looked in top tip shape on both properties. Find out more in this quick-read blog.
Sheriff construction is supporting grassroots sports by sponsoring two local football teams this season – the boys at Crawley Green Hawkes in Luton and one of the girls teams at Leighton United Football Club.

If you’ve ever wanted to get into property development, you might start by reading a book, listening to a podcast, taking some training or heading straight to the bank to check out the finance options. Or you could begin by asking someone who’s done it before and seek to follow their example.
In this week’s blog, we’re showcasing one example of our property development projects, Kingham Way, and sharing our start-to-finish video which really shows how a project like this takes shape over time. Read on for more details and to watch our video.
Last week we laid on a thank you BBQ as we bid farewell to most of the tradespeople who have been working at our Kingham Way site in Luton which is nearing completion. While Sheriff’s internal teams took on the management, brickwork and roofing works at this site, Kingham Way has only come this far with the support of all kinds of specialist tradespeople – carpenters, plumbers, plasterers/ dry liners, electricians, painters and decorators, tilers and more. Read this week’s blog for more about the project and who was involved.
Despite expectations that house prices would fall due to the coronavirus pandemic, the virus seems to have been no match for the UK’s buoyant property market which, over the last year as seen house prices hit some record highs. That might seem good news for sellers but, with many modern buyers seeking a touch of luxury, anyone trying to sell an older property may want to look for ways in which they can make it stand out and enhance the value of the sale. In this week’s blog, we’re sharing some tips for making your property appeal to potential buyers.

As we approach the end of 2020, we’re guessing we’re not the only ones who are looking back over all the challenges this year has brought, counting our blessings to be among the businesses who survived and looking forward to what will hopefully be better times in the New Year. But, while we can’t ignore the impact that Covid-19 has had, Sheriff has actually had many positive moments this year. Here’s our highlights.
While Autumn brings cool mornings and a blaze of colourful leaves all around us, for anyone in the roofing business, this also signals it’s time to carry out some routine maintenance up on the roof – removing leaves and dirt from gutters, cutting back any nearby trees and, for flat-roofing in particular, checking for signs…

When the company was first incorporated back in 2005, what was then named Sheriff Builders consisted of a small gang of bricklayers and labourers who mostly worked on private housing jobs and small scale contract work. Our name, Sheriff, was chosen at…
