Our prices include all the essentials
The prices you see on each branch's Price List are our lowest for each type of funeral. They include caring for the person who's died, a simple coffin, and the cremation or burial. We don't charge for the little touches like placing a rose on the coffin or playing music.
What affects the cost?
You can choose to add a personal touch, such as a unique coffin, flowers, your choice of transport, a printed order of service or a memorial. There might be additional costs depending on the type of funeral you choose, or what you require. You can find out additional costs by looking at Additional Options Price Lists on each branch's webpage.

Mark and the team at Gordon Barber were outstanding from start to finish.
They went above and beyond to guide us through this sad and difficult time with kindness, professionalism, and genuine care. They made the entire process as smooth and peaceful as possible for our family, and we will always be grateful for their support.

Kay was brilliant in helping us through the entire process of arranging my dad's funeral and offered some great support and thoughtful advice along the way.

Mark and his team provided an exemplary service which ensured everything ran smoothly and without a hitch. The attention to detail was second to none at every stage of this emotional time. The funeral was everything that we envisaged. I highly recommend them.
