Gaunt's of Wollaston has over 125 years of history in the funeral profession and has been run by its current team since the business was acquired in 2018, when the Wollaston premises were substantially refurbished to blend traditional and modern design. Funeral directors Jake Gaunt and Jack Malpass lead the firm, part of a wider group of independent funeral homes with branches across Blackheath, Smethwick, Cradley Heath, Kidderminster and Stourport, alongside Wollaston and Stourbridge, covering communities across the Black Country and West Midlands.
The chapel of rest is available around the clock, and the team arranges everything from horse-drawn carriages to modern Mercedes hearses, plus memorial and gravestone cleaning and restoration work, children's funerals, and non-attended cremations. Pre-paid funeral plans and transparent, published standardised pricing are offered across all branches.
The firm emphasises strong family values, describing its aim as treating individuals with the utmost respect and care in life and in death, and operates a 24-hour, 365-day service for families needing immediate help.
