Arranging a Funeral

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.

We tailor funeral arrangements to your needs.
