Simply the best. Don't bother going anywhere else. They are affordable and convenient for all. No matter how large or small your funeral, Andrew and his staff can take care of all your needs and requests. The day my father passed away, Andrew came and sat with us in our home. We even had the date of the service and the event booked from day one so we didn't have to call back family and friends twice which is painful to do once when grieving. They are kind, respectful and extremely professional. My father was an ex-paratrooper and the staff went the extra mile to find a British Legion Flag Bearer and an ex-military bugler who has performed twice for the late Queen Elizabeth II. It was an exceptional honour for my father and something special to see a full military send off. I've never felt more proud and it's all thanks to Andrew and his staff for making it happen.
I just cannot say enough. Especially to Andrew who responded to my email's well into the night. When you're grieving, you don't need any added pressure or stress. So, pick-up the phone and dial Andrew. He will take care of every detail and you will be in very special hands.
Words cannot express our gratitude to Andrew and the whole team at Andrew Roughley Independent Funeral Directors in Maghull Square for the care and attention they gave to our Mum when she passed away and also to us as a family.
Everything was organised for us, nothing was to much trouble and all of our wishes and requests for Mums funeral were taken into account. We were kept informed throughout the whole process with regular contact from Andrew who was compassionate and respectful at all times.
The funeral service was absolutely perfect and just what we wanted. We would like to thank Andrew and the team and would recommend any family in the same position as us to consider using them during an extremely difficult time.
Andrew kindly helped with the arrangements of my late Father's funeral. It was such a traumatic time for myself and my family and Andrew showed patience, compassion and kindness during the process, whilst remaining professional from start to finish. Andrew was always at the end of the phone/emails answering my untold worries and queries and put me to ease each time. I can't thank Andrew enough for all his support during this tough time and helped give my Dad the best send off we could've asked for as a family. Really do highly recommend Andrew Roughley and team to help with any funeral arrangements.
Thank you so much once again.
The best decision we could have made with regards to our dad’s funeral was asking Andrew Roughley if he would be able to move Dad from a different funeral directors. From the moment we spoke to Andrew our minds were put at ease and the service we received from the whole team was beyond caring and professional. Andrew made every part of the process easy and we felt totally comforted that dad was under the absolute best care. The whole team were so lovely to us the whole way through and we will forever be thankful for how they made a difficult process as easy as possible. We would highly recommend Andrew Roughleys.
It takes a certain type of person to show such patience, kindness and understanding as you conveyed to me and my family. You certainly have that dedication and compassionate approach. You took my Husband into your care with immediate effect of our meeting and supported me throughout the process. The service was conducted in a very professional and efficient manner. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you and your team for the exceptional way you handled all the arrangements. I higjly recommend Andrew Roughley Independent Funeral Directors.
Why Choose An Independent Funeral Director
Independently Owned
As a truly independent firm, we put the interest of you and your loved ones first. Unlike large, national organisations with branches across the UK, our advice is not influenced by head office rules and targets and large numbers of shareholders.
More Than Just A Funeral Directors
When your family suffers a loss it can be reassuring to know your independent funeral director is part of the local community. Whether you need guidance on the choice of funeral services, selecting a funeral plan or just comfort and support, we provide a friendly chat with no pressure or obligation, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Benefits of an independent funeral director
We are part of the community and family run. We take the greatest care when arranging every aspect of a funeral to ensure you receive the standards you expect and deserve.
As a member of the trade body for independent funeral directors (SAIF) we follow an industry leading code of practice and are regularly inspected.
We offer an array of funeral options all clearly outlined from the very beginning so you can choose what is right for you.
We take time to get to know you and provide support to anyone who walks through our door.
We will do everything we can to ensure the wishes of your loved ones are fulfilled.
As with all companies, the funeral business is in danger of being swallowed up by huge, impersonal International conglomerates such as
Funeral Partners,
Dignity and
Coop Funeral Care.
This creates a problem for bereaved families not knowing whether they are dealing with a professional family orientated business with your needs being their main concern or with a multi-national, with profits and shareholders being their main priority.
Even with the name still above the door it does not follow through that they are still the owners of the business inside.

Testimonials
How do you review something that was just perfect every step of the way!!
Our beautiful Mum died suddenly and we were so glad that we chose Andrew Roughley and his team to take her into their care. They were extremely compassionate caring patient reliable and throughly professional the whole time. There wasn’t anything that Andrew couldn’t do for us. It makes such a difference when you know you are in safe hands. Arrangements were made for us to visit Mum whenever we wished and we could stay with her as long as we wanted too!! This was done in a beautiful serene room so quiet and peaceful.
We will always be grateful for that.
My Dad passed away 2 years before Mum, we chose a lovely wooden box for Dads ashes and Andrew put Dad into the coffin to be with Mum, There was a plate at the bottom of Mums coffin with Dads name and the date of his death. Andrew and his team ensured that my Mums funeral was a fitting tribute to our precious Mum.
We as a family thank him and his team for everything they did for us.
I would highly recommend using Andrew Roughley we are so glad we did.
Jan
The minute we walked into Andrew's funeral parlour we knew we were in the right place. From the calm. friendly and professional greeting of the staff, to the modern and fresh but
tranquil environment, we felt instantly at ease.
What amazing service we received! Every funeral has its own difficulties and we certainly had our fair share but Andrew and his team resolved them all; their mantra of "the answer's 'yes', what's the question?"
was so refreshing. They dealt with everything for us; going further
than the extra mile and always keeping us informed.
There are not enough words to describe the excellent service we received; caring, compassionate,
friendly, professional, supportive, respectful, reassuring, the list is endless. In short, Andrew
and his team are just what you need to help you deal with a very difficult time.
We certainly won't hesitate to walk through his door again!
Helen
From the minute we walked into your premises we felt comfortable, we were treated with courtesy and respect, no pressure for payment and a written estimate of costs that could be incurred was very helpful.
On the day itself, very professional but with warmth. The celebrant that was recommended was so warm and sincere people thought he was a family friend. A difficult time was made a bit easier.
I didn't hear about you, I saw you while shopping but since I've told people who we used and everyone has glowing reports, so word of moth is working.
Pauline
Andrew and team made what was a very difficult time for us, a little bit easier. Calming and
extremely competent is an understatement.
Nothing was too much trouble for them and they kept in contact to let us know every step of the process and what our options were.
I have never had service this
exceptional anywhere else.
Lauren
Thank you to Andrew and all his staff. Your help and guidance in sorting our mums funeral was invaluble.
The day itself ran so smoothly and we were reassured by all your staff as to what was happening which was a great comfort.
Andrew and his staff on the day showed courtesy and a very professional and compassionable approach to us and all our friends and family.

Barbara
There are times in your life when you need that special person to put their arms around you and help you through a difficult situation, Andrew was that person for our family. His care, compassion and professionalism made arranging the funeral for Eileen so much less painful for us. He kept us fully informed throughout, took care of everything and always went that extra mile, nothing was too much trouble. His recommendation of Asa to deliver the service and of Alison's the florist topped the whole thing off beautifully, thank you Andrew.
Paul

Amanda
We cannot thank Andrew and his team enough for providing a truly compassionate and discrete service at such a sad and difficult time. Andrew and his colleagues could not have been any more courteous and respectful. All requests were listened too and fulfilled, making the whole process of paying our last respects very intimate and personal.
Paula
When planning a funeral, look no further than Andrew Roughley. I'm so glad I used them. The whole team are fantastic, understanding and nothing is too much trouble, even last minute changes. They make a difficult time a lot easier. Many people commented later, on how smooth and well organised it all was and the visual tribute was extra special. Thank you seems such a small thing to say, but thank you.
Peter
Attentive, professional service - you walked us through the arrangements from start to finish at a time when we were in need of a helping hand.
The offices have a calm and reassuring feel to them and all the employees were respectful and courteous.
Thank you for all your help and assistance.
You were highly recommended from a relative who used your services in 2020.
Joan
I would like to thank Andrew and hid team for the kindness and care shown to me when they arranged my Husbands funeral. On the funeral day they were there to support me which made a very sad day easier.
I would certainly recommend Andrew and his team.
Dorothy
I can not recommend Andrew and all the team highly enough for everything they did for me. They went above and beyond to make a very stressful time easier for me to deal with. I can't thank you enough for all your kindness and excellent service.
I have know Andrew from Clegg's Funeral Service and really glad he now has his own Funeral Service. Would not use anyone else.
Linda
I cannot thank Andrew and his team enough for all the help, support and guidance they gave our family.
The professional and friendly team made sure we got through a very difficult time which we appreciate.
We searched online and when we saw INDEPENDENT FUNERAL DIRECTORS we knew that was the one. Thank you all.
Jimmy
Andrew and staff were very helpful and kind making a difficult time a little easier to bear.
I visited three funeral directors. I found Andrew to be the best and most helpful out of the three.
Margaret
The service I received from Andrew Roughley and the rest of the staff was amazing. They were so helpful and nothing was too much trouble - I have never organised a funeral before and they took away all the stress. Also, cost was great. I would highly recommend.
John
We cannot thank you and your team enough for the dedication, professionalism and support whilst our mum was in your care. Your care and compassion came across from the first telephone call and there was no pressure to make decisions. Mum was looked after by Steve with dignity and kindness. The girls on reception are experienced and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. Your co-ordination and planning helped make the day perfect - a true celebration of a wonderful lady and this is what she deserved. Thank you.
M & J
Myself and my family were overwhelmed by the compassion and professionalism provided by all of the staff involved in the arrangements and service. Nothing was too much trouble and at all times our needs were met. The attention to detail was superb, we could not have expected anything more than what was provided, this being excellent. Would highly recommend your service. You were highly recommended by the manager of The Shielings Care home, Lydiate.
Vivien
Well what can we say about Andrew Roughley and his team. We really don't know how we would have coped had we not had your help to get us through this extremely sad and difficult time. At the very start you explained the arrangements that needed to be put in place and helped and guided us along the way and throughout with all the funeral service details. You not only welcomed us in such a friendly, caring and personal way but professional manner and we really can't thank you enough. You were all extremely kind, empathetic, professional and efficient and we cannot thank you enough.
Sue
Andrew made what is a painful time for a family as easy as possible. Mums was a difficult one to organise due to the time it took to get the cause of death certificate therefore delaying the registration of the death. Andrew was constantly in touch, letting me know what was happening. On the day he and his staff were lovely, patient and respectful.
My mum unfortunately has had cause to use your services a number of times whilst you were at Clegg's, she always said she wanted Andrew for her funeral.
Christine
You and your staff made such a difference to what was one of the most painful times for our family. You are a brilliant "servant" leader and as Steve so sincerely described you, "Andy always says the answer is yes, what's the question?" and that was our experience from the moment I spoke to you on the phone and you assured me that it was a 24 hour service. I didn't realise how prophetic that would be until I called you at 3:35am and you took mum into your care in such a dignified way. I'll never forget the experience of sharing my pain with your wonderful front of house girls and how they listened attentively and offered words of kindness. It is more than a job to you and your team, you are a "family" who care and that comes across from each and everyone of you.
