Frequently asked questions

When someone dies, the first steps will depend on how and where the person passed away. Our step-by-step guides will walk you through the practical steps. For additional support and personal advice, please get in touch with us.

You don't have to make an appointment at our funeral homes. However, doing so will ensure that someone can be available to cater to your needs. When arranging a funeral, our Funeral Directors are happy to visit you in your own home, if required.

Third party funeral costs are additional charges which we will manage for you and attach to your single invoice. Get in touch with us to confirm costs and plan a funeral to fit your budget.

If you choose to arrange the funeral with us, you will be given the option of a complimentary Funeral Notice. We will set it up for you using the details discussed during the arrangements. All we need is an email address.

Dignity Funeral Plans let you pay for your funeral in advance and at today's price. It's a way of taking control of the unexpected, setting out the arrangements and limiting the costs by paying for the services included in the funeral plan upfront.

At a very difficult time.

We found the full team at Peter Johnson Funeral Service very helpful, thoughtful and attentive.

The kindness, compassion and gentleness of the staff especially Paul and Rob made the whole process easy and they did an amazing job with the cremation & casket presentation of my late husband Raymond.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Peter Johnson Funeral Directors to all my family and friends.

Richard and the team at Peter Johnson took care of my Dad’s funeral. They were professional and considerate throughout, everything was arranged seamlessly. All costs were laid out simply and clearly at the outset with absolutely no pressure to add on expensive “extras”. We very much appreciated the skills of those who prepared my Dad for the chapel of rest. He had been very ill and it was a great comfort to the family to see him looking himself again. We did not have to worry about any aspect of the funeral and the humanist celebrant recommended to us was wonderful. Thank you to all at Peter Johnson for making a very difficult time a little easier. I would not hesitate to recommend their services.
