William H Painter Funeral Directors was established in 1907 when William H Painter, the owner of a horse-drawn taxi business, was helping a friend who asked to be taken to the nearest undertaker. We now serve communities across Birmingham and Solihull from our local network of funeral homes in Yardley, Castle Bromwich, Chelmsley Wood, Solihull, Sutton Coldfield and Erdington.
We are proud to serve the local Birmingham communities of many different cultures and faiths, as well as those with no religious beliefs. Our Yardley funeral home has its own Service Venue where you may choose to hold the funeral service in the very heart of your local community. We bring empathy and experience to support you in planning your loved one’s funeral and fulfilling your wishes to the best of our ability. 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. With our extensive experience serving the local communities within Birmingham, we endeavour to cater to every funeral request to ensure that your loved one is treated with the utmost care and respect. Here at William H Painter Funeral Directors we also offer a prepaid funeral plan, Choice, so that you can arrange and pay for a funeral in advance. If you would like to talk to us about planning a funeral, or our Choice plan, please come and see us in any of our Birmingham funeral homes, or if you’d rather we can arrange a home visit. We’re also available 24 hours a day on the phone so if you need anything please don’t hesitate to call your local funeral home. We are located in St Andrew’s Church Centre in Pike Drive. Free on-site parking is available in the car park outside the church, now used by the Chelmsley Wood Seventh-Day Adventists.
