    About Us

    Our South Yardley funeral home was established over 100 years ago in 1907 in a tiny cottage. Today, our much larger premises can be found just a short walk away on Yardley Road. We have free onsite parking and the number 11 bus route stops directly outside. Our nearest railway stations are Acocks Green and Stechford.

    At one of the most emotional and difficult times of your life, our experienced team are here to support you and listen to your needs. We can take responsibility for all the arrangements to allow you to remember your loved one in your chosen way.

    We can help to plan religious and non-religious funeral services and serve many different faiths including Church of England and Roman Catholic.

    We have six wheelchair-accessible Chapels of Rest for you to choose from, so you can pay your respects to your loved one in private. We also have a private ritual wash and dress room.

    We also have our own Service Venue where you may choose to hold the funeral in the very heart of your local community.

    Our experienced and caring team will advise and support you at every stage of the funeral planning process, with a wide range of funeral options and transparent pricing.

    Our South Yardley funeral home is open from Monday to Friday 9:00am to 5:00pm. Funeral home opening times may vary over bank holidays, but we are always available on the telephone 24 hours a day, every day of the week.

    If you would like support and advice from William H Painter in South Yardley please don’t hesitate to come and see, contact us on 01217061291, email painter.yardley@funeralpartners.co.uk or we can arrange a home visit.

    We were very well looked after by Julie Kilby in the Sutton Coldfield branch and by Katie Halford on the day of the funeral. Both were extremely professional, warm hearted, empathetic and supportive. We would have no hesitation in recommending WHP to friends and family.
