Read moreSalford spans some of Greater Manchester’s strongest contrasts — Victorian terraces in Pendleton, larger Edwardian semis through Eccles and Worsley, and the contemporary apartment stock around Salford Quays and MediaCityUK.
The MediaCity / Quays presence brings us a regular run of production work — set-piece sofas and chairs for film and TV, period reupholstery to camera-ready standards, and the occasional rapid-turnaround build for a tight schedule. NDAs are often signed before any reference material is shared.

Customer proof
What customers say after the work is back home.
“We ordered some campervan cushion covers and curtains from John at Valley Upholstery and cannot recommend him enough!! If anyone is looking to get some upholstery work done then this is the place to come.”
“In summer of 24, I had my dining chair seats recovered. Valley Upholstery did a fantastic job. A few months later, I decided I wanted a new suite, but couldn't find one I liked, so I went back to Valley and we discussed recovering my existing leather reclining sofas. There was such a lot of choice. John was very helpful and advised me of different materials I could choose from. I chose a very hard wearing product called Toro. Alan and Karl took one sofa at a time being very careful not to bang other furniture and wallpaper on the way out, and it was returned a few days later looking stunning. Amazing job! I can't fault them. 5* service. Thank you.”
“A truly hidden gem! They recovered 6 of our dining chairs. Fantastic choice of fabrics. Really welcoming staff and are grateful for your business. Would highly recommend.”
