What Our Customers Say

‘Thank you for all your help this year. The quality of the coffins has been exemplary and all of your delivery drivers are incredibly polite, friendly and helpful, as are all of your office staff who always go out of their way to assist with every request and are a real credit to your company. It is always a pleasure to speak to anyone in the office and thank you for making the ordering process so smooth and efficient.’

L T & R Vowles

‘I cannot praise all of the staff at Vowles highly enough. From the kind and extremely helpful ladies in the office to the careful and thoughtful delivery drivers. They all go to every length to accommodate and support me. I’m proud to use them and always recommend to other funeral directors.’

L T & R Vowles

‘A professional and friendly sales team always on hand to give advice, with a prompt and reliable delivery service delivering a quality product, that’s why we chose Vowles.’

L T & R Vowles

‘We have dealt with LT & R Vowles for many years and have always found the staff to be both passionate and knowledgeable. We are a smaller firm of funeral directors but always feel as valued as a larger client, both of which Vowles serve. The quality of the coffins is always excellent, along with delivery and if we need to collect, the early opening times are always useful.’

L T & R Vowles

‘The staff will always go the extra mile to obtain special furniture and fittings for the coffins, if these need to be bought in from outside of the Jukes Group. Also, with the Group having a soft furnishings outlet too, has been a great help, when we have needed special-coloured interiors.’

L T & R Vowles

‘We have dealt with L.T & R Vowles for over 25 years, the quality of workmanship is always 100%, and the team always go above and beyond expectations to deliver perfection. Delivery is always on time and drivers are always keen to help. I Would 100% recommend and have over the years recommended L.T & R Vowles to friends in the business.’
