    About William H Painter Funeral Directors

    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 Castle Bromwich, Chelmsley Wood, Kings Heath, Kingstanding, Solihull and Sutton Coldfield.

    We are proud to serve the people in those 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 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.

    Here at William H Painter Funeral Directors we also offer an affordable prepaid funeral plan, Choice, so that you can arrange and pay for a funeral in advance. This will protect your family from rising costs and remove uncertainty about your wishes.
