★★★★★ As a 26 year old you never think you’d have to plan a funeral in your life especially for a person as young as 30 years old but waters and sons especially Becky made it the most easiest time of need all my hard work paid off to give the best and beautiful send off and I’m forever grateful for waters and sons for helping me along the way the best of the best ❤️❤️❤️
★★★★★ Simon and Tracie provided a faultless service. We didn’t need to worry about anything ... all our wishes were addressed. On the day, everything ran smoothly and Simon was there to make sure it did. Their recommendations for Liza as the Celebrant was perfect, she also did an excellent job. At such a difficult time, we were treated with respect and they helped guide us through the whole process. Would definitely recommend.
★★★★★ You only get one chance to give the loved one you have lost the best possible send off.
This is why I am so glad we chose Waters and Sons. From the moment we sat down to talk about arrangements we knew we were in good hands. We were treated very professionally but everything felt very personal. The celebrant who was recommended did a lovely service which gave us all comfort, thank you Paul. On the day despite the weather Simon quietly looked after everything. A heartfelt thank you to Simon and Tracie.
★★★★★ Absolutely cannot fault any thing that Waters and their great staff did to help before and after. They make the very sad occasion bearable and run so smoothly..The celebrate they use is superb and again cannot fault anything about this Funeral director, highly recommended .
★★★★★ A lovely company who not only helps you at the time you need it most but go the extra mile for the perfect send off of a loved one.
I highly recommend Simon and the team and will definitely use them in the future.
