City Proofing professional services

If you need help with the spelling, grammar and punctuation of your work , as well as the general layout of your work then City Proofing is perfect for you.

After putting in so much energy and effort into researching, writing and sending out information, the last thing you want is for your reader to be distracted by an embarrassing error. You want your writing to be the best it can possibly be. Here at City Proofing we specialise in spotting common spelling mistakes, capitalisation errors, punctuation and grammer mistakes. We employ a wide range of techniques for spotting common mistakes such as;

Missing words out altogether, most people think faster than they can write, so it’s easy to leave out small words such as “a”, “the”, and “in”.

Adding a suffix to a root word. It’s easy to make mistakes especially when adding the “ing” suffix. For example;

The lady was bakeing a cake (Incorrect).

The lady was baking a cake (Correct).

Using the wrong words in the wrong places, especially when using homophones. Homophones are similar sounding words but with different spellings and meanings;

The children put there toys in the box (Incorrect).

The children put their toys in the box (Correct).

Not using correct punctuation marks, for instance;

The girl’s books are missing = books belonging to one girl.

The girls books are missing = books belonging to several girls.

Many professionals use their wordprocessors  built-in spellchecker and grammer checker, but software can not always be relied on to spot every mistake. It won’t pick up any of the mistakes above.

Cit Proofing provides a professional service that will ensure that your documents are error free, and we are competitively priced.
