M30 · 30 min from workshop
Upholsterer in Eccles.
Eccles is about thirty minutes from our Stalybridge workshop, out at the western end of the M60, and we get very little work from M30. What works well at that distance is cushions: seat cushions, window seat pads and covers, which can be brought in the car rather than needing a van at all.

The detail
Upholstery in Eccles: the detail.
Why cushions suit the distance from Eccles
Eccles sits on the other side of Manchester from us, and we would rather be straight about that than pretend we are round the corner. A sofa from M30 means a van across the city and back twice. A set of seat cushions means a car boot. That is why this page leads with cushions: for most Eccles homes they are the job that needs doing, and they are the one that travels easily.
Cushions and foam are the biggest single category in our own job records, far ahead of whole sofas. The foam inside softens over the years until the seat no longer holds you up, while the cover may still look fine. New foam cut to the shape of the old cushion restores the seat without touching the rest of the sofa. Our foam cut to size page explains the grades and how to measure, and replacement sofa cushions covers new covers as well.
Window seats, benches and garden cushions
If your house in Monton or Patricroft has a bay window seat, or your kitchen has a fitted bench or dining banquette, it needs the same thing: a pad made to the exact size of the space. Measure the length, depth and any angled ends, send a photo, and we will make the foam and cover to fit. Bench and window seat cushions sets out how we make them.
Garden furniture is the other one. Outdoor cushions fade and ordinary foam holds water; replacements in fade-resistant outdoor fabric over dryfast foam, which drains and dries, last far longer. See garden and outdoor cushions for what we use.
When the whole sofa needs doing
Sometimes the frame and cover need attention too, and then the sofa has to come to the workshop. Collection from Eccles is around £75 + VAT for both journeys, which is easier to justify for a suite or several pieces together than for one small chair. Before that, send photos: a sofa with a solid hardwood frame is usually worth recovering, and one built from stapled board often is not. Our guide to whether it is worth reupholstering a sofa explains how we decide. Most domestic recovers take two to four weeks at the bench.
Getting a quote from M30
Photos on WhatsApp, the quote form or a phone call all work. For cushions, include the measurements of each one and a picture showing how the covers close. For furniture, send a front and side view. A free, written quote usually comes back the same working day, and it will say which route to us makes most sense for what you have.

“Had new foam in our caravan seats. They did such a good job we decided to have new foam in our leather settee and arm chair. What a transformation. It will give us another 10 years. Brilliant. I would recommend Valley for any upholstery work.”

Local FAQs
Common questions from Eccles customers.
- Is Eccles too far for you to collect from?
- No, but it is a planned trip rather than a quick one. Collection from Eccles is around £75 + VAT for both journeys, so it makes most sense for a sofa or several pieces together. For cushions or a single chair, bringing it to the Stalybridge workshop yourself is free.
- Can I bring sofa cushions to you from Eccles instead of booking collection?
- Yes. Cushions, covers and foam cut to size can be dropped off at the workshop, so an Eccles job can be done without a van. Send photos and measurements first, and we will tell you whether new foam alone will do or the covers need replacing too, and how to carry them.
- Do you cover Monton, Patricroft and Winton?
- Yes. This page covers the whole M30 district, which includes Monton, Patricroft, Winton and Barton as well as Eccles town centre. The same options apply across it: a free photo quote, cushions in the car, a free drop-off at the workshop, or collection at around £75 + VAT both ways.
