    Sarah was so kind and understanding. She made the whole ordeal less daunting. She kept in touch and never pushed us. Everything went so smoothly thanks to her and the team. The cars they offer are wonderful as are the staff. This is my second funeral with them but I have recommended and attended others by them. A big thank you to you all.

    It’s one of life’s events you don’t want to prepare or think about. When it does happen it’s difficult to think straight about what needs doing. Everything from start to finish was carried out by T Allan in a professional & caring manor. All of the staff were brilliant.
    Well done & thank you.

    From our first contact by telephone and thereafter, T Allen Funeral Service have given us as a family excellent service and support, we could not have asked for more, throughout this very difficult time. 
    The care and compassion shown to us all was first class from every member of staff and the thoughtful little extras/finishing touches really sums up the kindness and family values of T Allen. 
    We would highly recommend this independent family business. 

  • 5 Marianne Luckhurst 24th Feb 2024

    This is the third time I have used T Allen and once again they have been brilliant. Sarah in the Rainham branch is an absolute star nothing is too much trouble. All the staff on the day of the funeral did everything we asked for taking all the pressure off us. Words cannot describe how grateful I am to them for their service, making us have as stress free a day  as we could have,  under the circumstances. 

  • 5 Peter Bowyer 18th Feb 2024

    Our experience with T. Allen from start to finish was exceptional. They looked after us with such care given the difficult circumstances, guiding us through the process with patience and meticulous detail. From the moment we first met with Sarah, we felt supported and guided through the arrangements in a gentle and sympathetic way. During the lead up they handled everything conscientiously and we felt comfortable every step of the way. On the day everything went so smoothly, led by Matt who was very compassionate. We couldn't have asked for better support than we received from the whole team.

    My family entrusted T.Allen (Rainham Branch - Kent) to assist us with our mum’s funeral. We were guided through the process with care, efficiency & professionalism, from the initial phone call & meeting, right through to our mum’s funeral & after care. We were thoroughly supported & couldn’t fault the service provided. We send our heartfelt thanks to Sarah & the team of gentleman on the day, who showed care & respect for our mum & us. 

  • 5 Caroline Morgan 3rd Aug 2023

    I can honestly recommend T Allen's Funeral Service as compassionate, considerate, professional and thorough. All of their staff were welcoming and approachable and gave honest useful advice on the process of organizing the funeral while taking into consideration us as a family and our requirements. The office staff were brilliant and checked in with us before and after the funeral to ensure everything was to plan and constantly asking if they could be of any further assistance. On the day the staff were so respectful especially to my mother who was distraught, giving us the time we needed to grieve properly. These are a true family firm who make me feel that my Dad had the best care on his final journey.

  • 5 Patricia Wright 22nd Jul 2023

    My family and I have nothing but praise for the entire team at T Allen from collecting my husband when he passed to delivering us to the wake.  The whole team were considerate, kind and sympathetic, nothing was too much trouble and they delivered everything we asked for. They took care of a dearly loved and missed husband and father with dignity.  Thank you to the whole team, Pat and the boys
