I certainly chose the right Funeral Directors they were excellent. I cannot give them enough prise.
On their booklet that I received it states “Care, compassion and support in all we do” That is so true.
From my first contact with them I could see that they cared and would support you through you sad loss.
Compassion they related to my sad loss of my Wife and they could not do enough to help me,
I cannot thank enough I know my late Wife would be proud of the care she received from them. -

This was our first time of arranging a funeral, but must say that S Stibbards & Sons made the whole process seamless from start to finish. Kate was sympathetic, respectful, friendly and brilliant at understanding our needs she dealt with it all in the most professional manner. Kate was on hand to guide us through it all as well as on the end of the phone to answer any queries we had. Their pallbearers and other staff on the day was also very respectful and professional.
An excellent service and will always be willing to recommend should we be asked. Thank you for all your help and advice. -

Thank you, a funeral well done for all the family and friends, Debbie was excellent at handling all the arrangements, even if we forgot things that needed to be done. On the day the funeral cars people were friendly and smiled a lot which helped lighten a dark day for us. Everyone commented how well things had been done. And when i have spoken to other people about Stibbards of leigh doing the funeral they said they had used them and that they were excellent, which gave us confidence too. Thank you all.

From start to finish the service I received at the most difficult time of my life was impeccable. Sympathetic, friendly and extremely professional. Always at the end of a phone/email to answer any questions.

5 Andrew Belton 30th Aug 2022
In all it was a lovely funeral but my mum paid for a funeral plan and I understand they have no control over 3rd party changes but we were shocked to have pay £253 for out of hours transfer from her home and into their care in all we had to pay £843.85 which we didn’t expect when she had paid for her funeral plan
Martin Stibbards replied
Dear Andrew, thank you for your kind words regarding the services that we provided to you. I am sorry to see that there was a shortfall in the plan provided to you by a 3rd party provider. However I hope you understand that even with the additional fees paid at the time of arrangement, the plan that your Mother put in place represented good value. Although we have no control over 3rd party fees, the plan Mum thoughtfully put in place, saved the family over £1000 had the funeral been arranged at today's current funeral costs.
