Still very much a family firm, we’re proud to serve clients from every religious denomination and ethnic group. We have worked closely with many families in the Croydon community helping them through the most difficult time in our lives and our 150-year connection with the area makes us an active member of the community.

We encourage the importance of making a funeral personal and unique to your loved one, to help your family and friends share memories and make the ceremony even more special to you.

    Rowland Brothers were recommended to us and I’m so glad they were. We used there Coulsdon branch and Judi who looked after us was so kind at what was a very emotional time having to arrange my dear mums funeral. Nothing was to much trouble and she guided us through what was needed and little suggestions to make it special. The recommendation of Karen as our celebrant was perfect.On the actual day of the funeral I received a phone call from the undertaker explaining what would be happening. From end to end a first class service and experience. Thank you to everyone involved. Sue, Tim and family

    I couldn't have asked for anyone better than Rowland Brothers to deal with my dad's funeral arrangements. Right from the day of his death to the day of his cremation, they guided me through every step of this unfamiliar process. David Webb and his team were a pleasure to deal with and they helped me provide a dignified and memorable send off for my father, for which I am forever grateful.

    Our family cannot thank the team, and specifically Chelsey, from the Whitehorse Rd branch for their care, respect and support in arranging our Father's funeral recently. Timelines were quite tight but we never felt rushed and they responded to our multiple questions straight away. All arrangements on the day went smoothly and exactly as requested. Thank you.

    From the moment we contacted Rowland Brothers they were kind and caring towards us, from making the arrangements personal for my Dad, to supporting us through the difficult day.
    I would highly recommend their services.

    The reason why I chose to go with Rowland Brothers is because Jackie, our point of contact at RB New Addington had the personal touch. Instead of directing me to a website or giving prices to me over the phone, she offered to send me an email confirming everything we'd talked about. Jackie, Tony and the team subsequently made the entire process until we buried our father, smooth and without issue. Nothing was too much trouble. Very professional but also very sensitive and empathetic. Thank you so much.

    The funeral for my aunt went really well today. Grace was an excellent celebrant and she put together a lovely tribute for my aunt. The order of service was was one of the best I've seen and the flowers on the coffin were really beautiful. John Rowland and his team were very helpful and supportive, the framed photo of Rose for the coffin was a nice touch and much appreciated.

    Thank you so much for helping us and for your work in organising such a wonderful send off for my aunt. I would certainly recommend Rowland Brothers to others.
    Response from the owner:Dear Dave, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your kind words. We’re so pleased to hear that everything went smoothly and that the service was a fitting tribute to your aunt. It’s wonderful to know that Grace, the team and I were able to support you and your family during this time. Your recommendation means a great deal to us! Kindest Regards John Rule Branch Manager
