I recently had to arrange a funeral with Asian Funeral Care, Harrow, and from the very first contact to the final farewell, their service was nothing short of exceptional. At such a difficult time, their professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail made an incredibly challenging process much more bearable. In particular, Nikhil, was absolutely amazing. From the moment I met, he treated us with the utmost kindness, patience, and understanding. He took the time to listen, offering gentle guidance without ever being pushy. His empathy was genuine, and he went above and beyond to ensure every detail was handled with care—whether it was personalising the service, coordinating with third parties, or simply being there to reassure us when we needed it most. The entire team was outstanding—supportive, efficient, and respectful at every stage. The funeral itself was conducted flawlessly, with a level of dignity and warmth that truly honoured our loved one. I cannot recommend Asian Funeral Care highly enough, especially Nikhil, whose dedication and compassion made such a difference during this emotional time.

Nikhil and the team. 🙏 The communication was really good, they handled everything for us. No rush in making payment even after the funeral which I really think is a nice service, a personal touch which  they offer. Definitely a company that I would recommend to use for a funeral. We would like to say thank you to Asian funeral care for giving our mum the send off she deserved. Mum would have been happy with who we choose for her, they treated mum and us with lots of respect.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Asian Funeral Care, Harrow provided exceptional service for my father's funeral. A key factor in my decision was the need for a larger chapel to accommodate my extended family for the necessary pooja. After exploring local options, I found that Asian Funeral Care Harrow could comfortably host up to 70 people. I am deeply grateful to Anis Rajpoot for their invaluable guidance throughout the process, including recommending Bella Petals for beautiful floral arrangements. I also extend my sincere thanks to Yash Bhatt, who conducted the pooja both at the Asian Funeral Care Harrow chapel and at St Marylebone Crematorium in Finchley. Pandit Yash Bhatt's performance of the Hindu pooja vidhi was truly excellent.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently my beloved husband has passed away. It was a very stressful time with a lot of sorrow for my loss. On the top of this I needed to organise funeral service and cremation. I didn’t know really how to start until I contacted ASIAN FUNERAL CARE. Next day I was invited to come into their office. Everybody was so compassionate, helpful, respectful and the most important sensitive. They helped me to organise cremation of my husband in the best way. It was absolutely stress free and relaxing to deal with this highly professional company. They were assisting me on every step: starting from documentations, choice of coffin, hearse, flowers and dealing with mortuary. I am very grateful for their support and care in such difficult time. I would highly recommend using ASIAN FUNERAL CARE service. You will meet respect, care and professionalism. Don’t hesitate to come there, just give them a call and you will get help from first minute. THANK YOU for Nichil and SanJay for their politeness and perfectionism. Galina Davis

Mum was beyond precious to us and only an amazingly beautiful, caring, loving handling of the entire process and ceremony would have given us the deepest satisfaction in her progression from this world. Nikhil and the team did just that and beyond. We can't thank you enough - you were sensitive, understanding and all the time extremly contructive and responsive. Nothing seemed a problem for you and smoothed it for us and the family not only professionally but personally. Thank you and bless you.
