About Us
A & A Walters feel privileged to have served the people of the Dudley, Sandwell and Wolverhampton boroughs since being established in Tipton in 1850.

They do not take for granted the faith placed in them by generation after generation and their number one priority is always to provide the highest possible level of service, care and support to those who entrust their loved one to them.
Their greatgrandfather has recently been immortalised as a character at the Black Country Living Museum for his philanthropy and support of those without means in Victorian society, and whilst they adopt a modern and progressive approach to the needs of families in the 21st century. This respect for both the old and new is reflected in the range of vehicles they offer – they are the only funeral director in the area with a highly distinctive vintage style hearse to compliment horse-drawn hearse funerals or their prestigious modern Jaguar XJ fleet.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you arrange a funeral?
You can arrange a funeral by choosing a funeral director who will help you organise all of the details. They can help you decide whether to have a cremation or burial and what type of service to choose, as well as additional options, such as music and flowers. You can find out what happens at a funeral and compare funeral directors on Funeral Guide.
Read moreWhat are disbursements?
Disbursements are additional costs for a funeral service that are paid to third-parties, such as florists, celebrants and burial fees. The funeral director will usually charge you for them and then pay the suppliers themselves.
Read moreHow can I get help with funeral costs?
If the cost of a funeral is not covered by a prepaid funeral plan, or the estate of the person who has died, you may be able to get financial help from the government’s Bereavement Support Payment or from War Disablement Pensions, charitable funds or budgeting loans.
