Did you know? Peter Dodd are one of the few remaining family owned and run funeral directors in Sunderland. Our website explains what you need to consider and to do in the event of a bereavement. If the person passes away at home and is an expected death you should first of all contact the family doctor who will call out to certify the death and arrange the death certificate.
If death is not expected and for any reason the death certificate cannot be issued the doctor may refer the death to the coroner. SAIF membership givies families the security and reassurance that funeral arrangements will be performed in a professional manner. We provide a highly dignified, well presented team that have a wealth of experience of the highest standards of funeral planning.

Myself and family have used Peter Dodd Services since I was a child, and we needed them recently. The whole experience was made as simple as possible for us and everything was was taken care of without any hassle.
They were both Professional and very Caring, which made the whole experience much easier to cope with.
I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I would recommend this funeral directors to anyone who wants the best care for their loved ones in their final journey of life. These guys go above and beyond any funeral directors I have ever had dealings with during our family passings over the years. What is also comforting was their genuine after care in the weeks and months after the funeral, which these days is a very very rare quality. I could not praise them enough. They were worth every penny. Thank you again Simon. We will never forget the respect you gave to our mother whilst she was in your care back in February 2020. God Bless!

Staff are very pleasant but I couldn't recommend this company. I was never given a written quote, only a verbal quote of £3500 - and consequently received a bill for over £4000 which they then tried to add an additional £180 to when I queried it. I appreciate a quote may not be exact but there's a big difference between £3500 and in excess of £4180. That was for a very basic funeral with the cheapest wooden coffin, only 1 car and no church service - just a 20 minute crematorium slot with a Humanitarian, (and other general funeral costs). I provided all of my own pallbearers and the wake was

THANK YOU from all the family and friends.
Also for your wonderful kindness when it came to talking details.
Then on the day with beautiful respect you cared for our Mother.
The horses and the carriage were beautiful.
It was always mother’s wish and she would have truly loved them.
