When we established Tester & Jones 20 years ago, we were very lucky to find our building on London Road. We chose it, as it was close to the town and would be large enough as our business grew. Most importantly, it felt like the ideal space into which we could welcome families and make them feel comfortable, cared for and safe.
It offers a large and level car park, which really makes a difference to our families. Sometimes when visiting a funeral director, you want a level of privacy, so being able to simply park up and pop in – without bumping into people when you might not feel up to a chat – really matters. It’s also on the flat and accessible, so if you’ve got any mobility issues, you can visit us easily.
Inside, our building is friendly and welcoming – in fact, we’ve had some decorating done recently, so it looks very fresh. It’s also on one level, making our two arranging lounges are easy to access. Both lounges are comfortable and private.
Our London Road office isn’t just what visitors see out the front. We’ve got our own mortuary onsite, so families can rest assured that their loved one is safely on our premises and in our care. We also have a dedicated chapel of rest, where families can spend time with their loved one.
In addition, we’ve got a large garage to keep our hearse clean and secure, when they’re not in use. There are also offices for our staff, as well as a lounge/reception area where families can have a cup of tea if they just pop in to see us for a chat and where are staff often gather for a lunch or a catch-up themselves.
At Tester & Jones, we are proud of our building but, importantly, you can be assured that your loved one will be looked after with dignity and care by us here in Crowborough.
