Caldecott and Sons is one of Wrexham's most established and respected independent funeral directors, with a proud history stretching back to 1872. Founded by Edwin Caldecott, the company has remained in family ownership for over 150 years and five generations, making it one of the few remaining independent family funeral directors in the area. Their town centre premises at 12 Pen-y-Bryn feature private parking, two private chapels of rest, and full hygienic mortuary facilities, all refurbished to provide modern, peaceful, and comfortable surroundings.
The team at Caldecott and Sons are committed to providing 24-hour personal attention, guiding families through every aspect of the funeral process with care, professionalism, and sensitivity. They offer a wide range of services including traditional church services, crematorium services, religious and non-religious ceremonies, horse-drawn carriages, floral tributes, pre-paid funeral plans, and much more. Their approach is centred on respecting the wishes of families and helping them create a truly personal farewell.
Highly praised by the local community, Caldecott and Sons are known for their compassionate staff, attention to detail, and transparent pricing. Whether arranging a simple, dignified service or a celebratory send-off, the team — including Stephen and Jack Caldecott — consistently go above and beyond to support families during the most difficult of times.
"He respected our wishes about the services we wanted from Caldecott, at no point trying to persuade us to choose more expensive options than we had in mind. We were able to deliver a range of Diana's personal items which were placed in the coffin with her and flowers from her garden to adorn her coffin."
— David Strong (about Stephen)
"Jack and his team from Caldecott and Sons gave the utmost care and attention to provide a well priced, dignified and compassionate service for my Grandma."
