Leading Independent Funeral Directors in Portishead
Want to give your loved one the funeral they deserve, for a price you can afford? Brunel Funeral Directors is here to help.
Whilst there are many funeral directors in Portishead to choose from, few offer more compassion and transparency than us. And, we are very proud to be able to offer our families a personal service of care and excellence, working hard to keep our prices low and standards high.
What we do
From time to time, everyone will need to arrange a funeral for someone their close to, or even themselves if they take out a funeral plan. However, seeking expert advice and support from funeral directors near Portishead, like us at Brunel Funeral Directors, can be comforting at this difficult and emotional time.
On the edge of Westbury on Trym, Bristol, we have a new, peaceful funeral home which is bright and welcoming, and just a short drive from Portishead. It’s here that the deceased will be taken to from the hospital or place of death and where you can come to discuss the arrangements of the funeral.
Funeral services and packages
We like to do things differently to other funeral directors in Portishead, at Brunel Funeral Directors. Our caring and compassion team is on hand 24/7 to fully support you through the process of arranging the funeral and give you the time you need to make the choices that are right for you and the rest of your family.
We offer a variety of funeral packages, including:
- Direct Cremation Service – a simple cremation with no one attending, no minister or service – at a fixed price of £1495 (inclusive of disbursements). Direct crematoriums are often the choice of those who want to keep things simple for their family when they die, as the bereaved don’t have to make any tough decisions about the coffin, flower arrangements, transport and venues.
- The Brunel Service – our most popular package, delivered with complete compassion and care and available from £1950. This package includes the conveyancing of the deceased into our funeral home, preparation and coffin. We’ll also organise the documents and doctor and minister fees – not to mention the hearse, limousine, directors and bearers (if required).
- A full tailored service – this is our favourite option as it allows you to create a personal commemoration to celebrate the life of the person who has died. This funeral package starts from £2175 and includes specialist hearses, coffins, flower arrangements, music, etc.
Additional Funeral services
You’ll find that most funeral directors in Portishead will help you to organise all the details. However, at Brunel Funeral Directors, we not only assist you in deciding between a crematorium and burial – but provide a range of other services too.
We offer all kinds of floral tributes, including simple bouquets to large, bespoke letters and numbers. Not to mention, jewellery and keepsakes, as well as wooden, stone, granite, paper and glass caskets and scatter tubes. Something else funeral directors in Portishead can help with is masonry. We deal with all types of monumental masonry requirements, so if you have any special requests regarding the gravestone or memorial plaque, please get in touch.
Funeral Plans
We understand that planning a funeral can be difficult for loved ones. The good news is, we can secure your family’s future by setting up a funeral plan with Golden Leaves – meaning that, when the time comes, they needn’t worry about the financial and emotional pressure of arranging a funeral.
At first glance, you might not know which funeral plan is right for you. It’s for this reason that many people call or visit funeral directors in Portishead and seek advice from one of our experts. The team, here at Brunel Funeral Directors, will listen carefully to your requirements before recommending a plan that suits your needs and wishes best. You can then either pay upfront for the plan or in monthly instalments. It’s entirely your choice.
