M46 · 45 min from workshop
Upholsterer in Atherton.
Atherton is about forty-five minutes from our Stalybridge workshop, so for M46 we lead with the jobs that need no site visit. New foam for flat sofa seats, replacement cushion covers, caravan and motorhome cushion sets, and window seat or garden cushions can all be quoted from measurements and dropped off at the workshop, while larger pieces are quoted from photos first.

Upholstery in Atherton: the detail.
Jobs that do not need us to visit
At forty-five minutes from Stalybridge, the most useful thing we can do for Atherton is the work that never needs a van. Seat cushions that have gone flat, covers that have worn through, a caravan set that has seen too many summers: all of these can be measured at home, quoted from photos and dropped off with us, and they are ready to collect when done. Cushions, foam and covers are also among the most common jobs in our records, so this is work the workshop does all the time. A box of cushions fits in a car boot, which is why distance matters less for these jobs than for anything else we do.
New foam cut to size
If your sofa seats have sunk but the covers are still good, new foam is often all it needs. We cut it to your measurements, choose a density to suit how the seat is used, and wrap it so it fills the cover properly. You can have the foam alone to fit yourself, or send the covers and let us fill them. The foam cut to size page explains how to measure, and our foam replacement service covers firmer seats for anyone who finds a soft sofa hard to get out of. Tell us who uses the seat most: a firmer grade suits someone who needs help getting up, a softer one suits lounging.
Where the covers have gone too, replacement sofa cushions are made new in a fabric you choose from our ranges.
Caravan, motorhome and campervan sets
Caravan and motorhome cushions are awkward shapes, and they are the reason many people look for a workshop that can template them. Send photos and measurements, or bring a cushion in as a template, and we will quote the set. Cushions are dropped off at the workshop and collected when done. Our caravan and motorhome page covers foam, fabric, zips and odd shapes.
Window seats, benches and garden cushions
Kitchen benches, bay window seats and garden furniture cushions are made to measure in the same way. For a window seat we need the length, the depth and the shape of any angled ends, plus a photo. Our bench and window seat cushions page shows what we make. Garden cushions use dryfast foam and fade-resistant outdoor fabric, so they cope with damp and sun far better than indoor foam and cloth would.
When it is more than cushions
If an Atherton sofa or chair needs a full recover or a frame repair, send photos first. We will tell you whether it is worth doing and what collection would add, and you can decide whether to have it collected or bring it over yourself. Quotes come back in writing, usually the same working day, through WhatsApp or the quote form.

“Our two piece settee was in good condition and the exterior fabric was fine but the cushions needed re-filling and the arms of the suite needed fixing as they had sagged. I spoke to John about the specific issues and he helped me to make decisions about what was needed. We are thrilled with the results and the suite looks and feels brand new again! It was taken on Monday and we got it back Wednesday. John went above and beyond when additional things became apparent with the single chair. Great service and excellent value for money!”

Local FAQs
Common questions from Atherton customers.
- Do I need a home visit for new sofa foam in Atherton?
- No. Measure each cushion's width, depth and thickness, send photos, and tell us how firm you want the seats. We cut new foam to size and either fit it into your existing covers or make new ones. The finished cushions are ready to collect from the workshop.
- Can I send caravan cushions from Atherton?
- Yes. Caravan, motorhome and campervan cushions can be dropped off at the workshop. We recover them, replace the foam where needed and you collect them when done. Most sets take two to three weeks, so it is worth bringing them in well before the season starts.
- What does collection from Atherton cost?
- Atherton is inside Greater Manchester, so collection is around £75 + VAT both ways, confirmed in your written quote before anything is booked. For cushions alone, bringing them to the workshop in Stalybridge yourself is free.
