The staff were so supportive and helpful guiding the family through the whole process. I would especially like to thank Joanna Smith, who was our main point of contact.

Saying goodbye to a loved one is never easy and probably the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do it’s overwhelming and where do you start was the biggest challenge for me and the biggest worry was will the funeral directors look after and take good care of my dad i quickly realised that this was definitely the case and my worries were over regarding my fathers care I’m so fortunate that Albins was our 1st choice Albins went above and beyond to give our family the peace of mind that was well needed during this sad time they kept us updated and informed throughout always ready to answer questions and make suggestions highly sympathetic and easy to talk too I had no doubt after meeting them for the 1st time that we had made the best choice this continued right the way up to the big send off when Albins arrived for the big day I was blown away with the level of respect and integrity the dress wear reminded of royalty there posture and stance showed commitment and confidence the coordination of getting the convoy aligned on a very busy tight narrow road was impressive they carried out all of our requests on convoy stoping to lay flowers at my dads favourite spots was done with pride when we arrived at my dads final destination was nothing short of admiralty I can’t thank Albins enough for there outstanding performance and will be forever thankful and grateful for all there hard efforts and it didn’t stop there even after the funeral they checked in and are still continuing to do so I know it’s not always about money at a time like this as we would pay any amount for peace of mind however money was a concern at the beginning as it is for most luckily my dad put money away for the funeral as he didn’t want to burden us with the cost once we had our 1st meeting and was waiting for the quote to come through which didn’t take long and wasn’t left worrying for too long whether we had enough funds to cover it as we requested more than the average funeral I was blown away with the cost and was expecting it to be alot more than it was Albins ticked all the boxes for me I would highly recommend them to anyone I can’t thank them enough

About Us
Built in 1974 on the site of the Old Runge Hall in Culling Road, the F.A. Albin & Sons head office was built to serve the community and has every facility to assist families at the time of bereavement.
The premises are located in close proximity to the public transport system and have allocated spaces for customer parking. Facilities include eight chapels of rest, a large garage to accommodate our modern fleet, a comprehensive mortuary, a museum as well as administration offices.
Also located at Culling Road is F.A. Albin & Sons' memorial garden, which consists of a large number of niches for families to inter the ashes of their loved ones, boulder plaques, wall and vase plaques where flowers can be placed. All remembrance opportunities are open to everyone so you will not be required to retain ashes in order to dedicate a memorial.
Funeral directors Jonathan and Simon Dyer are responsible for the branch and are available Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, on Saturdays from 9 am to 2 pm and on Sundays from 10 am to 12 pm. The company operates a 24 hour on call response outside normal working hours.
Our office serves all of the M25 area.
The Albin family first worked as wardens of the Bermondsey cemetery over 200 years ago, to then start serving the community as funeral directors.
