David Strong2024-06-12We used Caldecott & Sons of Wrexham to manage the funeral of our father in 2019 and had no hesitation in asking them to do the same following the death of our mother, Diana, in May 2024. As before we were given personal attention throughout by Stephen Caldecott. We were able to arrange an initial meeting with Stephen soon after Diana passed and agreed our requirements very quickly. We wanted a non-religious, celebratory service with contributions from family members and Stephen quickly understood our vision and gave very helpful advice on how to plan our service. He liaised with the crematorium to confirm a suitable date, put us in touch with our excellent Celebrant, Francesca Eder, and respected our wishes about the services we wanted from Caldecott, at no point trying to persuade us to choose more expensive options than we had in mind. Over the next three weeks before the funeral he or his colleagues were always available by email or phone to keep us on track with the arrangements, copying in our Celebrant whenever necessary. We were able to deliver a range of Diana's personal items which were placed in the coffin with her and also a CD of music we had chosen to be used in the service and flowers from her garden to adorn her coffin. On the day of the service at Pentrebychan Crematorium all went as we had hoped and Stephen and his team brought our mother exactly on time, laid out the service booklets we had designed and cued the CD so that everything went smoothly and ran to time. We would highly recommend Caldecott and Sons to anyone who wants an affordable but highly professional, friendly and reassuring service to guide them through what can be a very stressful and emotional time and particularly if you want to be able to give your loved one a celebration which feels personal and in which your family can be fully involved. David, Julia and Graham Strong.Jane Piggott2024-05-08We decided for our mother’s funeral to have a raffle. The Caldecotts team especially Jack was totally on board,, along with a few other mad ideas, and we kept adding pictures. The ceremony turned out exactly how we wanted, and all attended said they hadn't been to a funeral like it. So a huge thanks to Caldecott and Sons you made the day.Cliff Owens2024-04-05Cannot fault Caldecott & Sons- Jack took us through the process and quickly coordinated the whole event in line with Father Tudor the Crematorium and the reception venue. Everyone on the day was so helpful and Jack was extremely calm with nothing to much trouble, even getting the order of service printed with our many last minute changes. Truly professional and would thoroughly recommend- thank youOlwen Mcgrory2024-01-09Caldecotts are the best funeral undertakers they done my husbands mother and father They sort everything thing out for you from start to finish taking a load off your shoulders when you’re grieving.Lyndon Ford2023-11-12At a truly awful time, Stephen and the team at Caldecotts have been kind and always caring, with impeccable service and assisting with every detail along the way, from the moment of death to collecting my fathers ashes. Cadecott's have been a pleasure to employ and utilise their services. The whole team are incredibly diligent in their work, the attention to detail is incredible and they ensure that you are supported and guided in what is the most awful of times, always with respect and kindness at their core. I cannot recommend Stephen and the team at Caldecotts more highly. They are incredible people, a family business at its very core, and the entire team has been simply outstanding. They allowed Mum and I to give Dad the send off that we dreamed of and they exceeded all expectations. As an independent funeral directors, they have the ability to fulfil all of your wishes. The horse drawn carriage and funeral with music as a celebration of my dads life was an event like no other. The feedback from attendees was that it was simply beautiful. That is all because of Stephen and his team. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Sympathetic, personable, professional, friendly, uplifting; everything you might need at such times when such services are required. Communication was fast at all times or the day and even weekends, and information full and concise. On the say, this standard of service continued, with management allowing a seemless progression from start to finish. A massive thanks to everyone involved: Stephen, Tim, Jonathan, Becky. Amazing. Thank you.
