Thomas Cuthell & Sons is a long-established, family-run funeral director serving the Forth Valley since 1905. Founded by Thomas Cuthell, the business has been passed down through successive generations of the Cuthell family, and today is operated by Alistair, Paul, and Michelle Cuthell, supported by a dedicated team of professionals. Their Falkirk funeral home was acquired in poor condition and has since been lovingly restored to its former glory, occupying the Old Sheriff Court Building on Hope Street.
The company operates across four locations in the Forth Valley — Falkirk, Bo'ness, Grangemouth, and Denny — and is committed to providing the highest standard of care to every family they serve. Their core values, established by Thomas Cuthell himself, centre on compassion, integrity, and respect, ensuring that every family is treated as they themselves would wish to be treated.
Thomas Cuthell & Sons offers a comprehensive range of funeral services, including pre-arranged and pre-paid funeral plans, headstones and memorial services crafted by in-house sculptors, and guidance through every step of the funeral process. They are members of leading trade associations including NAFD, SAIF, NAMM, and SIFH, reflecting their commitment to professional standards and accountability within the funeral directing profession.
"The care and compassion that was shown to me was excellent, very professional from start to finish. I would thoroughly recommend this service."
— Schottischer Patriot
"First class company who know how to take care of you and guide you through the process. The support they gave and the professionalism was outstanding. They met my expectations and more!"
— Lauren D (Lorraine And John Douglas)
"My late wife Rose's funeral was dealt with in a very professional, sensitive and empathetic way. My family and I were given great comfort by the ease in which all aspects of the funeral were dealt with."
— Stuart Waterfall
"Paul was so kind, professional and guided us through during a very difficult time. The staff in the office were lovely and nothing was too much trouble."
— Jane Laird (about Paul)
"They are so compassionate and really listened to what I wanted for dad's send off — adding music, using my own musician, displaying and handing out personal keepsakes to the attendees. It was just so perfect and I'm very grateful I chose them."
— Lauren D (Lorraine And John Douglas)
"No question you ask them is silly — it might be silly to you but they find it; if it matters to you it matters to them. Our family have used them for many many years... it has been as much a family business to us as it is to them."
— Claire Martin
