Funeral prices – how much will the funeral cost?

Funeral prices vary, depending on the type of funeral you choose and the different aspects of the service you choose. We’ll provide you with an initial estimate when we discuss the arrangements with you. All our prices are transparent, and the price we agree is what you’ll pay, with no hidden extras or fees to worry about after the event.
