Due to our years of experience in the funeral industry, we at James Ashton & Son know how to add personal touches to our service. We understand that each death is unique and that everyone has their own way of grieving. Our funeral directors in Dundee and St Andrews are here to assist with the practicalities, making the process easier for you.
At a time convenient to you, we can arrange for one of our funeral directors to meet with you at your home or in one of our offices, depending on your preference. Arranging a funeral should not be rushed and so we encourage you to take your time. You may already have an idea about the kind of funeral you want for your loved one, whether you have already thought about it or your loved one has told you their final wishes. You can share all of these with us during the meeting, and we will then discuss with you with all the available options based on your needs and budget.
Our funeral directors are available 24/7 to support and assure you throughout your time of need.

James Ashton have a long-held and fantastic reputation in Dundee for a good reason. They looked after my family and I so well after my Dad's death. The preparations, cremation, service and internment all went smoothly. I can't thank them enough for their care and respect, and for just being wonderful human beings!
Caring, sympathetic and extremely professional from start to end. At a time when we had enough on our plate to deal with, all the staff at Ashtons (special mention to Colin and Zoe) ensured that we didn't have to worry with the most important part following our mum's passing. This loving care continued from Dominick Watson (Civil Ceremonies Dundee) and from all the staff at The Invercarse Hotel, both initially contacted and organised through Ashtons. I would love to say I won't be using any of them again but such is life, I won't hesitate to call them in the future if and when required. Thank you all x I knew I wanted a humanist service for my mum and Jamie recommended a lovely lady called Fiona. She conducted a beautiful service , everything went smoothly.and I don’t think there was a dry eye in the chapel.
We wanted to say a very big thank you to James Ashton & Son for the excellent and professional service they provided in making arrangements for our mothers funeral. James in particular was outstanding and clearly takes satisfaction from a service well given. It helped us get through what was a very difficult time. Many thanks once again and very best wishes.
