Top ratings for Distinct Cremation

Their customer service staff are excellent. I had a dedicated member of staff, Sarah Miller, who went over and beyond to reassure me. Everything was carried out with incredible efficiency and support. I had a bad experience with another direct cremation undertakers and appreciate so much the faultless care and support Distinct Cremation gave me.

A company above expectation

I cannot thank the team at distinct cremations enough. From the first phone call they were so helpful, kind and compassionate. They kept in touch throughout the whole process from start to finish. We had my dad hand delivered to us yesterday and a phone call today to see how everything went.
I would highly recommend distinct cremations over and over again. Everyone that I dealt with on the phone were so caring and really put me at ease at the worst time. From the cost to the whole package from start to finish.
They dealt with the whole thing in such a compassionate, professional manor unlike other companies I had been in contact with.

Great Company

It was very simple to do and the staff were very pleasant and professional. It’s nice to know that everything is sorted and the children won’t have to organise anything at their saddest time

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Distinct Cremations for their professionalism filled with kindness and care. In particular, I would like to thank Sarah Miller who, following the unexpected death of a close family member, showed nothing but sensitivity and empathy while simultaneously organising all the necessary arrangements. Sarah’s communication skills were both flawless and reassuring at a very difficult time and I will always be greatly appreciative.

Great Company to deal with...

Set up a plan for myself online and, it was so easy to do.
Customer Service very helpful if you need to speak to them.
Although l spent time thinking about a plan l kept putting it off as dying is not something we like to talk about even though one day it will happen.
Glad l sorted it and it means my family do not need the stress of doing this for me.

Couldn't have been better

They were very polite and considerate while walking me through the options I had, the information I needed to provide and what was going to happen.

Everything went smoothly and communications were good. They were also very good value for money.

Thanks to Joy and the team at Distinct Cremations.
