About the company

A Hazel & Sons Funeral Directors is a funeral director in Birmingham and part of Dignity Funerals. The funeral home was established in the 19th century and has served the community for more than 100 years. It operates from a listed building with two chapels of rest. It serves the local community as well as Gravelly Hill, Bromford and Stockland Green. The company has two other funeral homes in Sutton Coldfield, one in Streetly and the other on Birmingham Road.

The funeral home caters for all religions and denominations and offers funeral services of all faiths and cultures. It provides cremation or burial at any local crematorium or burial site, viewing of the deceased in the chapel of rest, hearses, funeral vehicles and bespoke transport options, memorials and tributes, prepaid funeral plans, and advice and guidance at every step, including registering the death.

Arrangements are tailored to meet your family's needs, with local expertise and knowledge. Two packages are offered: The Attended Funeral, which includes care of your loved one, a Basic Coffin, a service at the place of committal, followed by a burial or cremation, and The Unattended Funeral, a simple cremation without a service or ceremony. Memorials include headstones, urns, memorial plaques, vases, statues, jewellery and more.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Families in Erdington have turned to this funeral home for help with cremations, burials and the care of loved ones, and the accounts left by customers focus on the people who carry out the work. Jade, Sarah, Paul, Gary and Andrew are named repeatedly, and the theme running through the feedback is that staff treated the deceased with dignity and the bereaved with warmth.

More than one customer describes arrangements being handled from the first call through to the collection of ashes, with questions answered along the way and details attended to without the family having to chase anything. One thing mentioned again and again is the calm manner of those organising the service, which families say made a distressing period easier to bear.

Reviewers also mention that the chapel of rest provided a peaceful setting for visits, that the funeral itself ran to time and without hitches, and that drivers and directors on the day were courteous and easy to deal with. The range of work described includes cremation services, traditional funerals, coffins and memorials. Many families state that they would return to the same firm for future arrangements, and some have already made their own plans after seeing how a relative was looked after.

Jade and the team, from the point of first contact, looking after my mom, Debbie and the team on the day, and then after the funeral with the collection of mom's ashes, were caring, supportive. All details were taken care of and there was full communication. We felt listened to, supported and fully confident in the care of my mom and ourselves.

A Hazel and Sons ,Made my mums,family amd friends a day to remember. We started from the house where the Hurst was on time. We then made our way to the church. Our driver was Very enjoyable to get on with. It made our journey as if it were a normal day out. They made sure that everyone felt comfortable in the dutys that was a sign to them on the day. From entering the church with the coffin. And again at the graveyard. I would differently recommend them to anyone for 1st class service.

Jade and the team were excellent dealing with my Aunt funeral. Great communication made the whole process easier to deal with at a time when processing information can be difficult. Polite and friendly and empathetic at all times and nothing was to much trouble would highly recommend their services. Thank you everyone for making my "Aunts" day a good one.

Our family would like to express our deepest gratitude to A. Hazels & Sons Funeral Directors in Erdington, Birmingham for their exceptional care and compassion during the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, aunt, sister, and cousin, Norah Edwards. A special thank you to Sarah and Paul for treating Norah like family before and after she passed away. Your kindness and warmth will never be forgotten. Thank you also to Jade and Sarah for attending to every detail, answering all our questions, and coordinating with the church, cemetery, and horse and carriage company. You made a very difficult time so much easier for us. A heartfelt thank you to Paul, who personally directed Norah’s funeral to ensure she received the dignified farewell she deserved. Finally, thank you to the entire team for preparing and dressing Norah so beautifully and ensuring that her wishes were carried out with love and respect. Because of you all, she had a truly wonderful home-going. — The Family of Norah Edwards

A Hazel & Son in Erdington were absolutely amazing and thoughtful in all aspects of my dad’s funeral Jade and Sarah were phenomenal and were respectful in every way. My Dad looked so at peace in the Chapel of rest and they took care of everything with us. Because of this myself and my wife will be getting our funerals with A.Hazels. Your company should be very proud of the service you provide and also the staff that you hire…..each one is an asset to you. Thank you.
