    I can’t thank Rowland Brothers enough for their personal and friendly service. Both Tracy and Adam were so compassionate and looked after me throughout the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble and they helped to make my husband’s funeral the most fitting, dignified and beautiful send off. So grateful to them both. Thank you.

    We are funeral directors based in Malta and often we are approached by Maltese families to assist with funeral and cremation services of a loved one living in the Greater London area. To assist these families in the best manner possible we rely on the professional service and expertise provided by Rowland Brothers in Croydon. We have used their services for the past 50 years and without fail we have always been thanked by the families for referring them to Rowland Brothers.

    Their staff is caring and emphatic toward the needs and wishes of families and they always serve with dignity and respect. Well done to all the team and keep up the good work.

    Excellent service following the death of our mother. Rowlands provided support from the outset, advising us through all aspects of the funeral process. They enabled us to create a personalised, dignified funeral service with the funeral directors on the day even wearing ties showing the Jamaican flag. Their warm but professional approach made this difficult day much easier to bear and we cannot thank them enough.

    I cannot fault the service provided by Rowland Brothers at Coulsdon, Judi and all involved were very compassionate, helpful and professional during the whole process of arranging my wife’s funeral. The funeral service on the day was exactly as my wife would have wanted, she could not have had a better send off. Thank you Judi for making the process less stressful.

    From the moment we walked through the door in the Warlingham until the day of the funeral, the service we received from RB was impeccable. Courtney and Maya were outstanding throughout, they made everything hassle free for us and I can't thank them enough. On the day of the funeral, Joe and his team were also ever so caring, patient and helpful, again making everything run smoothly on the day. The added touch of the personalised folder at the end which contained the funeral service booklet and pockets for messages, came as a surprise and shows how thoughtful RB are. Additionally the printed framed photo for my husband was also a great touch and added to the overall experience. Thank you to everyone at RB for an amazing service and I will surely be recommending you to others. Absolute first class service!
