Direct Cremation Reviews - Distinct Cremations

Anyone who has lost someone they love deeply will understand how difficult it can be to arrange a fitting farewell to them. Right from the beginning Distinct Cremation were outstanding in their thoughtfulness and kindness and swiftly dealt with any requests from us. Everyone I spoke to was more than helpful and in particular Grace and Alice. Nothing was a problem to them and I felt that they were always just a call away. My family members were greeted with compassion at the Crematorium and the excellent team there had been briefed properly by Distinct Cremation about our wishes. The ceremony was greatly comforting for us all. From myself and my family I thank you everyone at Distinct Cremation.

From the start to the finish of my husbands journey was excellent. The staff gave their condolences and empathy. I received David's ashes from a very nice sympathetic gentleman who had travelled quite some distance to deposit them at my house I was very grateful. The cost of the cremation could not be better at this time. It gave me a chance to make other arrangement later. I have therefor made arrangements at the church followed by a celebration of his life at the local hotel.

Our funeral arrangements were handled with professionalism and compassion by Tracy. Everything was fully explained which made the whole process of a delicate subject easy to handle. Thank you!

The contact at the centre Maxine was very nice and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The delivery of David's ashes was in keeping with the service.

Although it came as a bit of a shock to find out our mum had a plan through Distinct Cremations, I can now understand why they took this plan out. Everything was handled with a profession manner and in a sensitive way, the staff were extremally helpful and always available to answer any questions we had. Although you don't get to have a crematorium service, we have family who live abroad, and getting everybody to attend at the same time would have proved very difficult. So, we waited for the ashes to be returned and arranged a wake at a time that suited the vast majority of the family. The fact that two of my siblings are now considering this type of arrangement speaks volumes. Distinct Cremations was a positive experience for our family.

The service received by Distinct Cremations was absolutely exceptional. I was completely blown away by the care, support and compassion provided by the company and in particular Sarah Miller who looked after me from the very first phone call after we advised them dad had died. She was such a glimmer of light at a very dark time which I shall be forever grateful for. Sarah kept in regular contact and her kind and gentle approach made the process so pressure free that I hardly felt like we were organising a cremation service (which was seamless and beautiful, the location was perfect and the local third party funeral directors that Distinct Cremations used were second to none) The addition of a wonderful celebrant and a photo tribute to dad’s original plan was worth every extra penny. It’s actually very hard to put into words how I feel about Distinct Cremations but during his life my dad was always so thrilled by excellent customer service and he certainly saved the best for last.
