My mother's funeral went off without a hitch. There was good communication with Garton's beforehand which I much appreciated and the comments I had from family and friends afterwards was all very positive. I would recommend them

Chris Greenwood 13th Dec 2019

My mother-in-law bless her had already pre-paid some years ago and set out her requirements, this made the funeral arrangements less onerous. That said, Lee and his team were very supportive, taking the family through the process step by step, helping us with the Service provider and the Order of Service sheets. They provided us with cones to ensure that space for the funeral cars was made available in front of the house, with minimum disruption. On the day of the funeral they were very professional and respectful toward all family members, young and old alike, before, during and after the Service. I would have no hesitation in recommending Garton's to anyone, in the assurance they would be in safe hands.

    Thank you so much to the team at M Garton's Funeral Directors, for your true professionalism, support, and care at such a sad time for our family. Would highly recommend Garton's. They helped us organise a truly amazing service for our mother which she deserved. Every step of the way they kept in touch and made this difficult time a little bit easier for us. Once again a huge thank you to Lee and Team that helped give my mother the best send of!

  • 5 Tim Gajus 5th Dec 2019

    Lee has been great and very professional when arranging direct cremation services. You can tell that it's a trusted, family run business that has wealth of experience and I was very pleased that M Garton & Son took such a great care when fulfilling our request from start to finish. Not only they were outstanding, they are also the cheapest provider in Hull.

  • 5 David Thornton 5th Dec 2019

    The service was entirely professional and as importantly, friendly, which was a great comfort at a difficult time.
    I would recommend Garston without hesitation.

  • 5 Clare Salmond 28th Nov 2019

    I would highly recommend M Gartons & Sons for Funeral Directors for number of reasons, first is the sympathy and professional advice from beginning to the end in the most difficult time in arranging the funeral, for my Dad, I had never arranged a funeral before but they made this easy to do, all staff I dealt mainly with Lee, but also Eric and Fergus were extremely friendly and gave me endless support needed, any question you had they would advice anytime you needed, and helpful hints and it was not about pushing additional services unnecessarily or costs, they use a Graham’s Florist who were very very reasonable prices and the flowers were beautiful. I would have to say that Lee were absolute gem, takes a very special person to do that job and he is one of them an absolute diamond and truly grateful to M Gartons & Sons and the words A very big thank you seem so little to all that they did for me and my family for a lovely send off my Dad.

  • 5 Wendy Winfield 4th Nov 2019

    The services provided by Gartons were excellent. They responded swiftly at the beginning of the arrangements and kept in touch regularly for the next fortnight.
    I would recommend Gartons to other families.

  • 5 Paul Holiday 1st Nov 2019

    M. Garton & Son Funeral Directors of Hull were from start to finish (and even afterwards) of My Late Father's Death ......... "Simply The Best"!

    Their true professionalism, understanding and most of all Calm & Caring nature of support that They showed throughout to My Whole Family will NEVER be forgotten.
    I can't "Thank" them enough for ALL what They did at our time of need and would give Them a rating of 11 out of 10.

  • 5 Mark Blackwell 11th Oct 2019

    Upon the recent bereavement of my wonderful mother, I had feared the task, arrangement and organisation of the funeral and all that it would entail.

    I had been recommended from a family member that I would be in safe and expert hands with M. Garton and sons.

    I can say without hesitation that the support, guidance and compassion that we have received has no doubt made the whole process so much more bearable.

    Glad to say that with your help, we were able to give my mother the wonderful send off that she so deserved and I can only say thank you for ensuring, certainly on my part, flawless support.

    Thank you once again.

    Mark Blackwell.

    Gartons looked after my dad three years ago and recently my mum. They were brilliant, not an easy time for anyone but they were so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. I was never rushed into making any decisions and would highly recommend them.

  • 5 Alan Thornton 7th Sep 2019

    We have used Garton’s services a number of times over the years. I can honestly say we wouldn’t use anyone else. 

     There services are so personal and they make sure ever last detail is perfect. The team are on hand for any questions and I honestly can’t recommend them enough.

     Our recent experience exceeded all expectations, we had some difficult circumstances. Lee talked us though the process and explained all eventualities to us, this helped us plan and set our expectations. Lee and the team managed to turn around some very tight timeframes to enable us to see our family member in the chapel of rest. 

     I’m sure everyone will agree this is a service that nobody wishes to use, however Gartons always take away the stress and worry. Don’t bother going elsewhere, use the best Garton's.

    We have used M. Garton and Son for seven family funerals over the past 40 years and nothing has changed. It is still a family run business who show such compassion, dedication, care, kindness and, above all, great professionalism which is second to none along with an amazing, personal service. We would never, ever use any other funeral directors. We just can`t imagine any other funeral directors topping them! They treat your loved one as their own. This is a fact. We just can`t recommend them highly enough. They show such commitment to you. We can guarantee that you will be in their extremely capable hands from beginning to end.......nothing is too much trouble. We really can`t stress this enough. Thank you Gartons - you really are the best!
