I came to Arthur Gresty to entrust them with my dads funeral who passed away unexpectedly. Paul Birkett, our funeral director, was excellent from the initial phone call till the end of the funeral. He was professional, informative and completely transparent. We were never pushed in any direction and had complete freedom of choice. When it was difficult to make decisions, we were guided very well and were always given financially feasible options. Everything went far better than we expected.

Recently used Arthur gresty in northenden. I couldn’t recommend them enough to anyone. Dan was amazing! It was breath of fresh air to have a young director especially being young myself. He was down to earth and so easy to get along with. He went above and beyond for my dads funeral. He was so respectful and nothing was to much. They didn’t rip us off and didn’t make us feel pressured. They had such a family feel and I would use them again if I needed a funeral directors.
