  • 5 Susan Griffith - Jones 29th Jan 2024

    As a family we could not have asked for more from the co-op team, from beginning to end they made the experience seamless, with sensitivity and care.  I would recommend the co-op to anyone looking to make their loved ones send of special, with people patient and understanding when walking through the options and decisions you need to make.   From the planning to the day itself we felt looked after and valued as a customer.   I cannot thank Jemma, Kat, John and the rest of the team enough.  You are all amazing people and gave us exactly what we needed as such a difficult time.

  • 4 June Smith 22nd Jan 2024

    Very good for funeral services but payments a bit confusing. 

  • 4 Amanda Wheatley 16th Jan 2024

    The funeral was conducted with no problems, as you can imagine it is a very difficult time, but staff did their best to be helpful and answered questions reasonably soon. They kept me informed as necessary and rang me the night before to let me know everything was as planned. The service itself went smoothly and I was pleased with the spray of flowers we purchased.

    I never give 5 stars for anything, hence I have given 4, but I have no complaints.

  • 5 Richard Sullivan 23rd Sep 2023

    The service I received from Watford Funeralcare was excellent. The staff who dealt with my brother's funeral, Georgina Ahern, Kat Roberts and Jon Richards were compassionate, considerate, professional and dependable. They made the whole process much easier than I thought it was going to be. I would very much like to thank them for their work.

  • 5 Cindy Woolford 21st Sep 2023

    They put me at ease the moment that I walked in. I thought they were very professional, very kind and sensitive. Obviously I was going through the worst day of my life as my mother had died, and yet they did make me feel at ease that they weren’t rushing through the process. I also kept in contact with me regarding order of service when to come to the funeral to go behind. My mum’s overall was very very pleased.

  • 5 Trina Cooke 19th Sep 2023
