Arranging a funeral is inevitably a sad time, but we were very impressed by the care and attention to detail given to us by Taylor's. The care and respect shown as well as help along the way was second to none. I would recommend them to others seeking the individuality of an independent firm.

From start to finish I was treated in a very professional way. Taylor’s are kind, caring, very knowledgable and the whole process was made very simple for us. They were also extremely reasonably priced. I would heartily recommend them. Thanks to everyone there !

From the first time I made contact with Taylor's they made me feel so comforted. It was like dealing with family. They said all the right things at the right times to ensure that this difficult/sad time went as well as it could. They were professional and so incredibly friendly. They kept me up to date with everything and ensured the day went to plan. Nothing was left undone. I would have no hesitation in recommending them and at the end of the process I felt that I had really come to know them because they were so genuine and caring. It made be feel so comforted when my late husband was in the chapel of rest, because they assured me that he was in good hands and they would take care of him. This sort of thing is so important which you never realise until it happens to you. Thank you so much to Sam and Liza for all your support and understanding which made such a lot of difference to me and my four children.

About Us
Helping people pay their respects to a loved-one their own way, is what funeral director Sam Taylor strives to do.
Inspired to provide a comforting and independent service that reflects what is important to families in the local community, experienced funeral director Sam opened the doors of this Dorridge funeral home in 2017.
Sam’s aim is for every funeral to be respectful, fitting and fulfilling. Taylor’s support people in the Solihull area to arrange a funeral that reflects their individual wishes or tradition and honour their loved one’s life.
As members of the local community they serve, Sam and his team are committed to support the bereaved, from the moment they make that first, very difficult phone call – day or night.
The funeral home on Station Approach is a comfortable and reassuring space to talk about your loved one and feel supported. Happy to arrange home visits to families who would feel reassured by this, the premises also has a peaceful chapel of rest for quiet contemplation, while bereavement counselling is also available.
Sam and the team at Taylor’s understand that at a very difficult time, it can be helpful to have options to make the decision-making process easier. Taylor’s Independent Family Funeral Directors has created three straightforward funeral service packages and provides helpful details of other funeral costs. Golden Charter funeral plans are also available for people considering their own funeral wishes, according to heritage, beliefs or personal choice.
Taylor’s Independent Family Funeral Directors’ optional services also include a personalised floristry consultation. This family-run funeral home is a member of the trusted National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF),
Call Taylor’s Independent Family Funeral Directors at any time of day or night for help, guidance and caring funeral service at the heart of the Dorridge, Knowle and Solihull community.
