The funeral, including the arrangements, were conducted in the most professional and efficient manner. The staff were most helpful in addressing my questions and queries which ensured that the day of the funeral went as smoothly as possible. An excellent service was provided by Leverton & Sons Ltd.

From the moment we contacted Leverton & Sons Funeral Directors, we were met with the most professional and compassionate service we could have hoped for. Their care and attention to detail were impeccable from start to finish. The removal of our mum’s body was handled with such kindness and respect, which gave us great comfort during such a difficult time. They guided us every step of the way, offering invaluable advice and assistance with obtaining the death certificate and making all the funeral arrangements. Even when it came to smaller details, like recommending a florist, their support was outstanding. On the day of the funeral, everything went seamlessly, a testament to their professionalism and dedication. The team at Leverton were not just professional but also incredibly caring throughout the process. We cannot fault their service and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of compassionate funeral care.

I wish there was many more stars to give my family and myself can not thank Julie & team enough for everything from start to finish making what was a totally unexpected death that little bit more bare able they all showed such professionalism towards us and the attendee’s, we are sure John (JC) would have been delighted with how his day went. So thank you to each and everyone at levertons especially Julie a truly wonderful lady an absolute asset to the company to be able to be yourself with no hard selling just do you and if she can make it happen she will above and beyond and further if possible.

I cannot thank Levertons enough for planning my mother’s funeral. Every detail was handled with such care and respect and nothing was too much trouble. Deborah went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect allowing us to focus on honouring her memory.

We booked Levertons for our mum’s funeral and couldn’t have asked for more help to organise everything as we wished. Everything was completed with an empathy and care from the original phone call to the sorting out of the account. I would have no hesitation in recommending Levertons.
