And no two funeral directors are the same either. At Stockman & Loram, our prices include many of the funeral elements that other providers add on as extras. To help you compare like-for-like, here’s our guide to pricing.

In September 2021 the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) introduced a legally binding order that requires all funeral directors to display a set method of pricing.  Unfortunately not all funeral directors offer the same level of service as the CMA neglected to address the fact that many funeral directors are not members of a recognised trade body such as SAIF or the NAFD. Therefore we urge you to be very cautious when comparing options based on these standardised price lists.

We are always happy to have a conversation with you before you decide on who to entrust with your loved one's care and funeral arrangements. You can call us at anytime on 01803 882385.

Funerals reflect a life lived and the personality of the deceased. There is no limit to how you can personalise a send-off whether that’s in the ceremony, use of materials, music or style of event. We encourage families to lean on our extensive experience and explore the possibilities

– it costs nothing to have a conversation.
