Please find below available options for a funeral service of your personal choice. We can tailor the arrangement to suit your needs when either cremation or burial is requested. Funeral Fees are broken down into charges of the Funeral Director and Disbursement or Third Party Fees payable on behalf of the family.
We are members of the Society of Allied & Independent Funeral Directors and also the National Association of Funeral Directors where we adhere to the current funeral code of practice. In accordance with the code of practice, clients will receive a detailed estimate of these costs prior to the funeral taking place, which will be based on the arrangement chosen. Please contact us for further details.
Standardised Price List
All funeral directors are legally required to publish this Price List for a standardised set of products and services. This is to help you think through your options and make choices, and to let you compare prices between different funeral directors (because prices can vary).

Fees you must pay
For a new grave, you will also need to pay for the plot; for an existing grave with a memorial in place, you may need to pay a removal/replacement fee. In addition, the cemetery may charge a number of other fees.
Additional Funeral Director Products and Services
(price per mile)
(e.g. to their home, to a place of worship, etc.) Price is per conveyance.
(e.g. celebrant, minister of religion, etc.)
The funeral director can give you a full list of what they can supply. They are likely to charge for these additional products and services, so you may choose to take care of some arrangements without their involvement, or you can use a different supplier.
Please discuss any specific religious, belief-based and/or cultural requirements that you have with the funeral director.
[1] This fee (which is sometimes called the interment fee) is the charge made for digging and closing a new grave, or for reopening and closing an existing grave.
[2] In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, you will usually need to pay doctors’ fees as well. This is the charge for two doctors to sign the Medical Certificates for Cremation.

We will however, endeavour to provide our best estimate.

Direct Cremation/Burial arrangement fees must be paid 48 hours in advance of the cremation/burial date. A final account will be sent 10 – 14 days after the funeral. The final balance is due within 30 days of our account.
