Sturrock, Comb and Davidson is an independent, family-run funeral director with over 130 years of expertise, built upon trust and recommendation. The Forfar Road branch, located at 34A Forfar Road, Dundee, is one of four locations operated by the company, serving the communities of Dundee, Angus, Fife, and Perthshire. The business has been passed down through five generations and was formed when R. Sturrock & Sons amalgamated with Comb & Davidson, bringing together two long-standing Dundee funeral businesses.
At Sturrock, Comb and Davidson, every funeral is arranged on an individual basis, with a personal and caring approach designed to guide and support families at their time of need. The team is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and offers free consultations and call-outs. The company takes pride in transparent, fair pricing and includes many services as standard that other providers may charge extra for, such as family viewing, attending the home to make arrangements, and access to specialist bereavement support.
The company is accredited by SAIF (Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors) and is an appointed representative of Golden Charter Funeral Plans. They have also been recognised as two-time National and three-time Regional winners of Golden Charter's Funeral Planner of the Year award.
