Dawn Wilkes 15th Jun 2022

I couldn't of asked for a better service for my mom Gary went out his way to make us sure everything was how we wanted it Even after the funeral he helped me with a vase even took it to the cemetery for me . Just on behalf of myself and my family we are so grateful to chamberlain's for the service I received at the most awful time of loosing my mom Dawn Wilkes .

Ben Davies 17th Mar 2022

From the very first phone call Gary made us feel totally at ease, and made the awful process of dealing with the funeral of our much loved husband, father & grandad much more bearable for us all as a family. Professional, courteous and a constant calming influence every time we made contact with anyone at Chamberlain’s, we were made to feel like part of a bigger family and we have no doubt that Gary made the cremation service as well received as it was with family and friends alike due to his warmth and compassion at a truly heartbreaking time in our lives. As a family it is hard to put into words how difficult it is dealing with the death of someone so close, but at each step / turn Chamberlain’s dealt with everything swiftly and put our minds at rest so we could focus on other things. Gary even went to the trouble of picking our beloved Alan up from the hospital ASAP so he was within their premises and placed in the ‘Chapel of rest’, which in turn bought him closer to his birthplace which meant so much to us. We would have no hesitation in recommending Chamberlain’s to anyone, it’s not something any of us want to go through but rest assured you’re in good hands with Gary and his fellow staff members. The service beforehand and on the day itself was second to none and they will go out of their way to make it the best send off possible. Kind, caring, heartfelt and thoughtful is just what you need at a difficult time and Gary and his team go above and beyond that in our opinion. Thank you all once again for your services, truly very impressed and we still all feel we can class you as a friend of the family, hope this review affords you many more customers as you truly do deserve all the praise you receive. It’s not often guests at a funeral will comment after about the service, but literally everyone there felt compelled to tell us and Gary how wonderfully well it went, you did Alan proud and we’ll never be able to thank you enough. Best wishes for the future from Pat, Ben & Matthew

When we found out that my dear brother didn't have long i wondered who would look after him when he fell asleep? When he did fall asleep i was over the moon to know he was going to Chamberlains, Gary and his team did a great job looking after us as a grieving family and on the day we laid our brother to rest we were very pleased with everything they did for us. I would recommend Chamberlains to anyone, although we are sad, they made it a very special time for us and the prices are very good. Thank you Gary and your team. On behalf of the Blackwood family.

    Chamberlains funeral directors are very professional, kind and caring. The company is small, giving a very personal service. They treated my father with dignity and respect. The service performed by Gary was the perfect balance of memories and comfort. He took all the stress out of the funeral arrangements. 
    I recommend this company whole heartedly 

    Gary Lewis replied
    Thank you Corrine for this five star review. It is very much appreciated.
  • 5 Lorraine Broadhurst 1st Feb 2022

    Where do I start… 
    It’s daunting planning a funeral there’s so much to think about and it’s hard when your grieving to even think straight. 
    From the moment I made the first call to Chamberlains’s I knew I didn’t have to look any further. 
    Gary is the nicest person I’ve met, dedicated to his role and it’s plain to see that he genuinely cares not just for you but your loved one. 
    It’s comforting to know everything is handled for you from start to finish. Jan is a lovely lady and she helped organise the relevant documentation so there’s nothing for you to worry about. 
    Chamberlains are different they go the extra mile so please look no further because you won’t find anyone better.
    I cannot express enough gratitude to them. Everyone who came to the crematorium spoke so highly of the service Gary gave. 
    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for fulfilling Harry’s final wishes. You have been a blessing. 

    Gary Lewis replied
    Thank you so much Lorraine for this beautiful review. Your feedback is gratefully received.

    Thanks to the whole team at Chamberlains for their sensitive treatment and compassionate service.

  • 5 Jonathan Wright 3rd Jan 2022

    Would highly recommend Chambelain's
    Unfortunately, this is the third time we've had to use them,this time for my uncle.
    Gary and Jan are really professional at what they do.
    Helping you through everything you need to sort out in ​these very difficult times.

  • 5 Rosalyn Hinton 30th Sep 2021

    Fully recommend this funeral directors, they were amazing from start to finish.  Cheaper than the main stream funeral directors for the same if not better service.  Extra costs ie flowers, order of service we also priced competitively and quality was beautiful.   It was such a comfort to know that they would lead me through the day of the funeral and were by my side throughout.  If needed, in the future, I would 100% use them again. 

    Gary Lewis replied
    Thank you Rosalyn. This is a lovely review and very much appreciated.
  • 5 Rachel Bell 29th Sep 2021

    We recently used Chamberlains Funeral Directors for my father's funeral. The service that we received and the service that we are still receiving now has been outstanding. Chamberlain's offer and fulfill a personal touch throughout the whole process and beyond. Chamberlain's made an already extremely emotional and heartbreaking period in our lives, easier to deal with due to their dedicated, professional and sympathetic team.
    Thank you will never be enough for the service that we have received and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services.
    A truly amazing Company.

    Thank you Rachel for this beautiful review. Your feedback is very much appreciated.
  • 5 Michelle Billingham 29th Sep 2021

    Chamberlain's funeral directors was the company my mum used when her husband passed away and my mum was so impressed with the service that she received she set up a pre paid funeral for herself through chamberlain's she would always tell me how lovely Gary was and how everything was taken care of if anything was to happen .
    Mum passed away suddenly and it was a shock I was not prepared at all to lose her let alone plan a funeral but because mum had a plan in place all I had to do was arrange an appointment to go to chamberlain's and meet Gary to discuss when I got there Gary was courteous and kind showed great empathy and was shocked to hear mum had passed away .
    He went through the plan with me ensuring everything was accurate and how mum would of wanted it he had many conversations with her prior to this .
    The whole process was effortless for myself of which I am so grateful as it was such a difficult time for me the team at chamberlain's processed everything and kept me informed about collecting mum from the hospital to the arrangements for visiting mum in the Chapel of rest the funeral on the day was planned perfectly from the route they would take to the final drop off after the burial Gary and his team were respectful ,courteous, and very professional throughout even after the funeral keeping me informed on the stonemasons work with the headstone also.
    I can't recommend chamberlain's enough and I am so thankful that Gary and his team impressed my mum so much that she took out a funeral plan because it was just so perfect and so straight forward I had no worries what so ever it was how mum had planned it and that was perfect for me and my family.
    Thankyou for your kind words and the empathy you showed me throughout ❤

    Thank you Michelle for this heartfelt, five star review. It is gratefully received.

  • 5 Christine Fletcher 4th May 2021

    My family and I have nothing but appreciation for the way Gary Lewis, not only conducted the cremation service and subsequent internment, but assisted us with every step of the process from when we first contacted him to make arrangements . He is a kind and empathetic man who knows how to handle and communicate with families with the utmost professionalism and endearment. Thank you so much.

    Gary Lewis replied
    Thank you so much Christine for this heartfelt review. It is very much appreciated.
  • 5 Kerry Bowater 4th May 2021

    We have never had to arrange a funeral before and rang around several funeral directors for advice and pricing and as soon as I spoke to Chamberlains, they put us at ease, Gary and Jan have been truly amazing and helped us lay our dad to rest in the most loving and caring way that we could during a Pandemic.

    Nothing was too much trouble, they organised everything for us and made sure our Dad was cared for with the up most respect during his stay with them.

    They are very professional in all that they do but add that extra personal touch to a family trying to come to terms with a bereavement. I would highly recommend them.

    Thank you so much, I know Dad would be super proud!

    Gary Lewis replied
    Thank you Kerry for this wonderful review. Your kind words are gratefully received.

  • 5 Eileen Sale 30th Apr 2021

    No-one but Gary could have given Yvonne the service she wished. A gentle, kind, sympathetic person always at the end of the phone to assist the bereaved. Impossible to recommend highly enough the considerate services of Gary, Jan and staff at Chamberlains

    Many thanks Eileen for your kind words. It is gratefully received.

    Having never arranged a funeral before,I cannot thank Gary enough for making it bearable.
    I have never met a more caring and compassionate person,nothing was too much trouble.
    From day one he kept me informed of every procedure and progression.
    Now it's over I actually feel like I have made a new friend.
    Thank you for everything.

    Gary Lewis replied
    Thank you Mrs Edgar. Your kind words are gratefully received.
  • 5 Lisa Heeley 14th Oct 2020

    Well what can I say. It was the first funeral I have ever had to arrange and a hard one as it was my mother's. I was petrified as you can imagine. I needn't have worried. Firstly I met Jan and she was lovely. She went through everything from type of service music order of service and the flowers which she even arranged. She personally picked my mom up from the hospital and called me when she had done so. She gave me bullet points regarding the eulogy and gave me a choice of a minister or their very own Gary who I chose and I'm so glad I did. A couple of days later Gary called me and I went up to meet him with to discuss the service with my daughter. He was very empathetic and we chatted about my mom . He was very interested in what I wrote in the eulogy which he said was lovely written and would not have to change anything. We felt so welcome and calm . Chamberlains emailed everything over from the layout of the order of service and finished eulogy slightly tweaked. Gary also got in touch with the tenants association where she lived and did a dummy run. On the day he and the driver picked us up and joined the hearse where he escorted my mom there on. The service was delivered beautifully and everyone who attended said how wonderful Gary was. We were driven back to my moms home afterwards and chatted to him and the driver for a good ten minutes . Chamberlains made a terrible situation into an much easier and bearable one . Our family cannot thank them enough for what they did we are eternally grateful. We feel like we met them as strangers and left as friends . As long as they are there I know that if unhappiness strikes again I will turn to them one hundred percent and know I wont have to worry about a thing.

    Thank you so much Lisa. This is the most detailed and heartfelt review we have ever received. It is very much appreciated.
