Our Services

Thank you for your interest in our funeral costs. We have selected four examples of our most reasonably priced funeral options for your consideration.

We are a family business, focussed upon looking after you and your family, and our care and advice will reflect that – because it’s personal.

We are pleased to offer bespoke funeral arrangements in addition to these examples. We will also advise you about finances, and help available towards the cost.

Contact us, or come and talk to us for clarification and professional advice. Call anytime: 01630 654490


 

We offer the whole range of funeral services ‘at need’:

  • Traditional and unique bespoke burial and cremation services (both religious and non-religious);
  • ‘Green’ funerals (environmentally friendly);
  • Repatriation to and from, and within the United Kingdom

In short, we will do whatever is legal, decent, honest and truthful.

We offer a wide range of coffins and caskets, including bespoke designs for the family who require something unique and relevant, rather than the traditional approach.

The same is true regarding modes of transport. We use Jaguar hearses and limousines but we can provide:

  •  A 1960’s Princess hearse and limousine,
  • A horse-drawn hearse,
  • Flat bed lorry, motorcycle hearse,
  • VW camper
  • Land Rover hearse

We have used a tractor and trailer in the past – again, anything is possible.

We will place an announcement in the Press for you, and provide a nice bespoke Order of Service for the funeral. We will cater for your floral tribute needs, and handle donations on the day. We have our own memorial masonry business and will provide full estimates of costs, tailored to your requirements.

If you would prefer a very simple, quiet and dignified funeral, we will provide exactly that.

We offer The Shropshire Funeral Plan range of ‘pre-paid’ funeral plans to suit your every need.

Please remember, we are a telephone call away, and we are ready to help you.
