The day of the funeral went smoothly (March 2025). Thanks to the whole team who supported us on the day of the funeral and the team we met with in person leading up to the day of the funeral.

Very professional and were made to feel very comfortable when organising my husband's funeral and have no doubts in recommending Levertons

Two family funerals in the space of three years. Leverton and Sons can't be faulted. Attention to detail is all part of their service and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend.

I am from Germany and my sister died in a Hospital in London. I asked if Leverton can help us and what we have to do. Carmel was so kind and helpfull to us, so everything was as we wanted. Many thanks from us to Carmel and the Team behind. Best regards. Mathias

The funeral went as planned with kindness, dignity and with all the expected support in difficult times. Leverton & Sons are still with us after more than 200 years for good reason. Thank you.

Every aspect of Leverton's involvement was first class, done with discretion, understanding, efficiency and kindness.

From start to finish Levertons funeral directors have been nothing short of first class in dealing with firstly our fathers funeral and some 10 months later our mother's, their patience, understanding and organisational awareness just took so much pressure of us, just professional in every way.

When our grandmother passed away, we chose Leverton & Sons and were supported by Lorna throughout the process. She was incredibly kind, considerate, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. As it was my first time organising a funeral, I truly appreciated the care and guidance we received. Lorna took the time to walk us through everything and made a very difficult time more manageable. The team was also very accommodating to our needs, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leverton & Sons. Thank you so much, Lorna.
