Hugely supportive in every way

Hugely supportive in every way, Lodge Brothers Windsor guided me through the arrangements with sensitivity and compassion.

I have unfortunately needed the services of Lodge Brothers twice in the last 5 months for both my mum and dad. I have always found the service amazing and professional. In sad times you don’t always think straight and I can’t thank Jo and Sarah in West Byfleet branch enough for doing my thinking and organising for me. Jo is so kind, a lovely human being and thank you to Sarah for making my mum look lovely and like my mum in the chapel of rest. Thank you guys and in the nicest possible way I hope we don’t meet again soon. Nicola Dorey

Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt message. We are truly sorry for your loss, especially having experienced it twice in such a short time — that must have been incredibly difficult. We are so grateful to hear that Jo and Sarah were able to support you so thoughtfully, helping to ease the burden when things can feel overwhelming. Your kind words about the care taken and the attention to detail will mean a great deal to them. Thank you again for your trust, and for taking the time to express your appreciation.

From the two staff members who came in the early hours of the morning and handled things with tact and respect, to Jo Wright and her colleague Laura in a neighbouring branch, who stepped in when needed, we felt that there was always someone ready and waiting to help us efficiently and sensitively. Our process involved a repatriation from the UK to North America, and it was prompt and seamless. The can-do attitude of the international team was also reassuring. The process of arranging Orders of Service was made very easy and the printed copies were swiftly delivered, once we had approved the final draft. We would recommend Lodge Brothers in Weybridge unreservedly.

My husbands’s funeral

From the start the staff were excellent. They listened to what the family wanted.
Basically we had very little to worry about as they had everything covered and kept in touch to confirm any details.
On the day of the funeral everything went smoothly. The staff are compassionate, caring and organised. Everything went just how we hoped for. I would highly recommend using Lodge’s.

Outstanding care and compassion from Lodge Brothers

From the very first call, the team at Lodge Brothers showed nothing but kindness, professionalism, and genuine compassion while organising my mum’s funeral. At an incredibly difficult and emotional time for our family, they handled every detail with such care and sensitivity that it lifted a huge weight from our shoulders.

In particular, Maaike was exceptional. She was so thoughtful and attentive, taking the time to understand and carefully consider the cultural traditions that were important to us. Her sensitivity and respect in ensuring these were honoured meant more to us than we can easily express, and it made the service feel truly personal and meaningful.

Throughout the process, we were listened to, guided calmly through each step, and never felt rushed. Every question was met with patience and understanding, and my mum was treated with the utmost dignity and respect at all times. Their experience and attention to detail gave us complete confidence that everything was in safe hands.

On the day of the funeral itself, everything was beautifully organised and carried out flawlessly. The staff were discreet, respectful, and quietly supportive, allowing the day to run smoothly and giving us the space to focus on saying goodbye.

We could not have asked for a more caring or professional service, and we are deeply grateful to Lodge Brothers — and especially Maaike — for helping us honour my mum in such a thoughtful and compassionate way. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing trustworthy and genuinely caring funeral directors.

Your heartfelt recommendation and appreciation will be shared with everyone. Kind regards Robert Lodge

Very caring and efficient

In the days leading up to the funeral, Jo who looked after our family was very caring and reassuring at such a sensitive and difficult time. As well as being extremely efficient she got us through this period with her personable and caring manner. The day ran very smoothly and we found everyone from Lodge Bros to be extremely professional, helpful, sensitive and did wonderful job.

From the moment we met Penny at the East Molesey branch we were looked after with great care, compassion and understanding. Everyone at Lodge Brothers worked together to look after us and ensure we had the funeral for Mum that we wanted. I would highly recommend this excellent family business.

I cannot speak highly enough of the care and professionalism

We recently entrusted Lodge Brothers Byfleet, with the funeral arrangements for my father-in-law, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care and professionalism they showed throughout.
From the very beginning, they demonstrated a deep understanding of our wishes and supported us with genuine compassion during what is such a difficult time. Their guidance made the entire process feel manageable, and we always felt reassured that every detail was being thoughtfully handled.
On the day itself, Robert Lodge personally oversaw everything, which gave us complete confidence that we were in the very best hands. His calm presence and attention to detail ensured the day ran seamlessly, allowing us to focus on remembering and honouring my father-in-law.
We also visited the chapel of rest, where it was clear how respectfully and carefully they had looked after him. He appeared so peaceful, which brought us a great deal of comfort.
Every member of the team treated us with the utmost respect and sensitivity, especially Karen & Penny. Lodge Brothers truly go above and beyond, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of funeral services.

Highly recommend

We used the Roehampton branch, following a recommendation. We initially spoke with Robin, who was wonderful; kind, compassionate and professional at every stage. Robin clearly explained everything we needed to consider, happily held a video call (as we were not local), and helped us with our various questions as we navigated the arrangements. On the day of the funeral, we met with Sue and Daniel, both were amazing, with their care, attention to detail and seamless service.
