What families say

"Their care does not simply stop on the day of the funeral — they are 'there' for folk in the difficult weeks and months following the loss of a loved one. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Truly a first class service from a dedicated team."

— Alan Packard

"All the stress was taken away by their loving care. My mum looked so peaceful and like she was having the best sleep. There was no rush or pressure, and we could sit comfortably before going in to see my mum, or not go in if we so chose."

— Geraldine Bird

"They took care of Mum so well. Rhia travelled up to London with the hearse and ensured everything went smoothly on the day. Nothing seemed to phase them. We had a wonderful service that ran well over the allotted time, but the team remained calm and professional up to the end."

— Lorinda Holness (about Rhia)

"You never feel like just another client — they genuinely care about the families they support and that shines through in everything they do. Their dedication, compassion and exceptional service will never be forgotten."

— Chris Skinner (about Jody)

"No words can describe how grateful we are for the genuine care and support Haine & Son gave when helping us organise our daughter's funeral. There was never any pressure for us to have anything we didn't want. We were able to visit the chapel of rest and spend as much time as we needed with our daughter, which was invaluable. We are forever grateful for everything at such a difficult time."

— Faith Brimmell (about Paula)

"Jodie actually worked her day off to co-ordinate the funeral. She was there whenever we needed her, but completely unobtrusive in our grief. They made sure Mum was dressed in her own clothes, and had her beloved red shoes with her. The care and respect shown to my mum was unbelievable. You have all been amazing and we, as a family, thank you from the bottom of our hearts."

Rhia and the team at Haines in Polegate were so kind, empathetic and professional from the minute we met Rhia to arrange our it Aunts funeral. The process was explained so well and they arranged everthing perfectly. On the day Rhia was there to guide us and check that we understood what would be happening and when. Our whole family really felt that the funeral was beautiful and exactly how our Aunt would have hoped. Thank you so much

I cannot recommend Haine & Sons highly enough. From start to finish, the entire process was handled seamlessly, with professionalism, care and genuine compassion. During what can often be a difficult and emotional time, the team made everything feel effortless, providing reassurance every step of the way. A special thank you to Jody and Venessa, whose kindness, attention to detail and personal approach made all the difference. They treated us with warmth, respect and empathy, ensuring every detail was taken care of with the utmost dignity. What truly sets Haine & Sons apart is their personal touch. You never feel like just another client, they genuinely care about the families they support and that shines through in everything they do. Thank you to everyone at Hains & Sons for making such a difficult time so much easier. Your dedication, compassion and exceptional service will never be forgotten, and I would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone in need of your services.

Without a shadow of doubt the ladies at Haines, Polegate, Rhia, Jodie and Vanessa are so professional. That is just the tip because they all in their own way add so much more to a time of sadness and stress with their total empathy, compassion and always attention to the smallest detail. Nothing was too much trouble, they were with you through the whole sad process which in turn helped enormously and touches of humour were also hugely valued. From planning the Order of Service to reflect every facet of my husband's life, to the additional help with scanning photos and making the actual ceremony so very special. In turn there were so many affirmations of the service being truly beautiful and reflecting his life as he would have wished. Thank you Vanessa, Rhia and Jodie

Thank you to the exceptional team at Haines & Son in Polegate for looking after my mum’s funeral arrangements. Their kindness and compassion made a very difficult time so much easier to navigate and we felt that they genuinely cared. The celebrant they recommended, Heather Godding, delivered a beautiful service with compassion and warmth helping give my mum the beautiful send-off she deserved. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

I recently used Haine & Son Polegate funeral services for my mum’s funeral, and I can’t thank them enough for their care and professionalism during such a difficult time. From the very beginning, they were compassionate, respectful, and attentive to every detail. They made a challenging process much easier to navigate and ensured everything ran smoothly on the day. Their support and understanding meant a great deal to me and my family. I would also highly recommend Heather Godding whom they recommended for the celebrant service, to anyone in need of a thoughtful and truly personal funeral.
