We take care of every detail and advise you every step of the way. We believe a funeral should be as personal and individual as the person who has passed away. Funeral arrangements can be discussed at our office or within the privacy of your own home. We pride ourselves on welcoming your loved ones and you into our family home as we guide you through the process of saying goodbye. Unlike other Funeral Directors we open our home to you during what can be a difficult and emotional process. You can be rest assured that from the first phone call to the final goodbye you are in the best possible care, Our family have a wealth of experience in ensuring that the final journey for your loved one is dignified and commemorates their life in the way you wish them to be remembered. At the heart of our home is our Plumb Suite, a beautiful rest room where you may wish to spend time saying your goodbyes. We aim to make your loved ones funeral as unique as the individual. We are fortunate to work alongside industry professionals, who can provide anything from beautiful floral tributes to a range of stunning modes of transport for your loved ones final journey on the day of their funeral. Mark was a young boy when a teacher at the local secondary school said he would make a good Funeral Director. Mark's Mum approached many companies to no avail. Roy and Mary Plumb, however, who ran A S Talbott in Thurmaston were willing to give him the chance offering him a weekend job. Mark started at the age of 13. This weekend job soon developed into an after school job when Mark would just turn up with his school bag cleaning cars and polishing coffins that were hand made in those days. Roy and Mary took Mark under their wing and soon became like adopted parents to Mark where he would work every weekend nights and all through the school holidays, gaining experience of all aspects of funeral services. When Roy and Mary retired to Spain, Mark was given the job of managing the company and in later years placed his name above the door. Mark has a lot to be grateful for and it seemed fitting, after their passing, to remember where it all began and named The Plumb Chapel after them. The Plumb Chapel holds a special place in the hearts of Mark, Hayley and Max, and is the perfect resting place for your loved one.
