We offer a high quality UK PhD proofreading service. Are you looking for an experienced, native English PhD proofreader or editor to polish your PhD writing? At LondonProofreaders we specialise in all PhD subject areas.
When you are writing a PhD thesis you may not see errors that you have made. Thus, we offer a unique, two-proofreader system as standard for all PhD proofreading and editing. This means two expert native English editors will check your PhD thesis.
These editors with their years of experience can spot errors in your thesis you miss. We guarantee to improve your PhD thesis by thoroughly reviewing and correcting not just the basics (proofreading) but also the choice of words, tone and style (editing). Furthermore, we are known for being well-versed in PhD editing requirements.
Remember: A friend or colleague is not qualified to proofread a PhD thesis and using AI is a grey area that can jeopardise your PhD!
We understand using a proofreading service for a PhD thesis can be costly, but our prices are highly competitive.
Our standard service is a proofreading and copyediting service. The standard service can be ordered through the website for PhDs under 100,000 words here.
However if your thesis is over 100,000 words, please fill in this form to get a quote and order.
We check the following:
✔ Grammar
✔ UK/US Spelling
✔ Punctuation
✔ Capitalisation
✔ Sentence structure
✔ Word choice
✔ Academic style and flagging repetition
✔ Academic tone
✔ Repetition
✔ Verb tense
✔ Personalised language tips
Two proofreaders check your work. It costs £13 per 1,000 words.
We use the Track Changes feature in Microsoft Word so that you will see all of the amendments that we have made.
Your document is sent to the first proofreader who goes through it in detail, looking for errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, word choice and sentence structure. When they have completed their first edit the document is sent to the second proofreader. This editor is a quality control expert, who goes through the document again to consolidate the first proofreader’s work. Both proofreaders use the “track changes” feature in Word to highlight errors and add comments and personalised language tips.
Our service is 100% secure and confidential and within university policy guidelines. Furthermore, we comply with the Data Protection Act and our website is SSL secure. We can sign non-disclosure (NDA) agreements if needed – just ask!
We are an online business which means our overheads are lower than companies with large offices and desk-bound staff. Thus, we can pass these savings on to you and offer the best quality at an affordable price.
Our rates are extremely competitive and we do not compromise on quality. Compared to other online proofreading services we are up to 40% more affordable.

Below are some recent testimonials from PhD students who have used our PhD proofreading service:
I was really under time pressure to have my PhD edited…The team at London Proofreaders replied promptly and we had a very smooth operation. They were quite accommodating of my time constraints. Their work was very professional and was not compromised by time pressure and their charges were quite fair. I would recommend their services to anyone looking for editing services. Naomi S., University College Dublin
I used London Proofreaders for my PhD in Psychology. My whole thesis was reviewed and return back to me efficiently within a 10-day turnaround. I had a tight deadline, which the team was able to accommodate. Each chapter was thoroughly read and amended by two proofreaders. I was very pleased with the overall outcome of proofreading service and quality of work produced. I feel like my PhD is now structured and written in a professional manner. Highly recommendable and trust worthy! Neda M., University of Manchester

I have funding/a scholarship that expires on a set date. Can I pay in advance and use the credit when I’m ready?
