Business overview

RW Barrett & Son is a caring family business situated on the West Road and in West Denton. We offer a full funeral service tailor made to suit your requirements

We are a local independent family firm of Funeral Directors in Newcastle upon Tyne. Ronnie Barrett had been a funeral director since 1966 and in 2008 together with his wife Pat and son Steven they opened their funeral home on the West Road Newcastle. Drawing on over 65 years of experience at other local funeral directors, we were confident we could provide the local community with affordable and dignified funerals of the highest standard. Sadly in August 2016 Ronnie Barrett passed away. Followed by Pat one year later. Having attained his own qualifications Steven has inherited his dad's ability to deal with the bereaved with empathy, compassion and professionalism and will continue to move forward with his Wife Rachael and a team of conscientious staff. Steven & Rachael Barrett

Personal service and attention to detail are very important to us, and the dignity of the deceased is paramount at all times. These three important points have helped us to successfully move forward and we have a reputation for providing a high standard and keenly priced funeral.

Excellent Professional and Compassionate Service

5
As we live nearly 200 miles away, it was imperative that we had a reliable team for my Mum’s funeral. From the first contact with Jim and the team, we received a first-class professional, yet compassionate service. At this very difficult and sad time they helped us focus on all the details for the service and made sure everything was perfect on the day. Their attention to detail is impeccable before, during the service and the after care. We had a Celebration of Life Service, with Minister Gislaine Beadle, who did not just convey my Mum’s life, but beautifully captured her personality and character. I cannot thank the team enough and would highly recommend.

First Class Professional Service

Following the recent passing of our mother I decided to go for Barrett's as our Funeral Director because of the positive impression I gained from their website. Best decision I could have made. The service provided from the outset was first class. All the staff we came into contact with were friendly, flexible and totally focused on meeting our requirements where nothing was too much trouble, advice being offered and provided whenever needed. 100% professional providing us with a truly personal service that met all our requirements. Can't recommend too highly.

Flawless and Imperious - Thank you for a Very Special Experience

5
The only place to start with RW Barrett and Son Funeral Services is to thank Steven and his wonderful team for their personal, respectful and professional service. They’re quite simply great people and th le best at what they do. Proud geordies as well may i add.

The support and respect afforded my dad and our family was flawless and the preparation was impeccable.

As for the send off, wow, the day and funeral service far exceeded all of our expectations. Tom Leighton was absolutely magnificent in all aspect inside the chapel. For the want of not repeating the same adjectives, Steven was quite simply imperious in all aspects of the service outside of the chapel. The Barrett staff were also simply superb - just very good people and thats all you can ask for.

It is a day we all dread all of our lives, but when you are faced with the inevitable you need people like this helping you make it as memorable and respectful a day as it can possibly be.

Thanks again. Forever indebted.
