If I could give Frank Painter and Sons 100 gold stars instead of just five, I certainly would. They came highly reccomended and I would have no hesitation in reccomending them myself to anyone in need of funeral services. From the first moment I connected with them I was treated with the utmost professionalism, courtesy, respect, and sensitivity and friendliness. My particular thanks go to Alan who looked after me so incredibly well during the 6 weeks we had to wait for my partners ceremony. Nothing at all was ever too much trouble. There is a wide range of beautiful stunning coffins to choos

We recently engaged Frank Painter & Sons for my dear Dad's funeral. Ian looked after us throughout, so we had one dedicated point of contact and care; he acted with the highest level of compassion, kindness, approachability, attention to detail, presence and professionalism.

Everyone at Frank Painters was so lovely and helpful from the very first phone call I made. Thankyou especially to Ben - who was so kind, helpful and patient with us, Ben always kept us up to date and never minded answering our many questions we had, nothing ever felt too much to ask and he made the whole process so much easier and less daunting, we would recommend Frank Painters to anyone. Our Dad was very well looked after and respected whilst with Frank Painters, and the service was lovely too, so thankyou so much to everyone involved.

The funeral was organised superbly and Ben was fantastic on the day, as he was beforehand and has been since. We rec

After recommendation and witnessing my friends mum funeral, I contacted Sarah with a view to Frank Painter & son taking care of my Mum’s funeral. From start to finish Sarah was absolutely fantastic. Everything was felt with compassion and professionalism. Nothing was too much trouble, great communication throughout. I cannot thank them and Sarah enough for the way they and she guided me through the planning such a difficult and sad occasion. Many thanks
