The office was established in 2010 and offers assistance in burials, exhumations, cremations and repatriations.
Located in Welling Way in Welling, Kent, the branch covers all of the surrounding areas and has a variety of products offered including will writing, photography, service sheets, urns and keepsakes.
The premises feature an arranging office, two chapels of rest and a reception.
Assisting the bereaved for over 200 years, the Albins family has first started working as wardens of the Bermondsey cemetery to then grow to funeral directors.

Absolutely Brilliant from start to finish, Dawn was so lovely and helped us every step of the way , if dawn was not available Christine was lovely and always there to help , Dawn used to call us every couple of days or so just to make sure we are all ok , on the day of mums funeral everything went like clockwork , Danny and they boys were so lovely and gracious , we could not ask for anything better, Dawn recommended Jan to be our officiator/celebrant , she was such a lovely lady and completely understood exactly what we wanted to say , so if you need an officiator please ask Dawn or Christine to book her. My sincere thanks to you all absolutely fantastic service x

I cannot recommend Albins & Son at Welling enough. Nothing was too much trouble and Dawn & Christine were so kind, caring & compassionate. Absolutely wonderful to deal with. Also the gentlemen attending the funeral on the day were incredibly professional, kind & curtious.

Christine, Dawn and the boys at Albins Welling are amazing, they made a very difficult time easier helping with every decision that we had to make they didn’t mind how many times I contacted them or how many questions I asked they are always so caring. Myself and the family really appreciate everything they have done and my sister said yesterday how comforting it was being able to talk to them and we miss them.
