We’re transparent about our funeral costs.

We understand the cost of funerals is sometimes a big worry for families.

A funeral can be a large, often unexpected, expense.

We will talk you through the costs for different funerals and always provide you with a written estimate in advance of the funeral. This way, you know exactly what it will cost, subject to any additions made after the estimate has been given. Examples of such additions would be obituaries or service sheets.

A simple funeral would work out to be a little less than our more popular funeral packages detailed below, and, of course, selecting a more expensive coffin and having many “extras” would increase the final account significantly.

To the right you can download our Standardised Price List, which all funeral directors are legally required to display on their websites and in their funeral homes. It shows a breakdown of our Simple Funeral, more details of which can be found on the next page / tab.

If you would like us to give you a more accurate estimate for a funeral, please telephone us or call in. We will need to ask you a few questions to ascertain your requirements, and our estimate will be inclusive of all fees and services as discussed. A no obligation, written estimate can be given if requested.

Once arrangements have been made, a written confirmation and estimate will be given.
Invoices will usually be sent a week after the funeral. A disbursement charge of £100 will automatically be added to all funeral accounts, but will be deducted if the invoice is settled within one month.

At your time of need, our funeral directors are here for you.
