Upholsterer in Stalybridge.

Our job records include around 200 jobs for SK15 customers, which makes Stalybridge the busiest district we have. Much of it is ordinary household work done properly: sofas, foam and seat cushions in roughly equal measure, then dining chairs, footstools, armchairs and repairs.

If the frame of a Stalybridge sofa is sound but the seats have gone flat, new foam cut to the old cushion shapes is often the first thing to price. We cover that on foam replacement and cut to size. If the fabric is worn through as well, sofa and suite recovering explains how a full recover works, and is it worth reupholstering a sofa? helps with the keep-or-replace decision.

Footstools come up often enough in SK15 to mention on their own. A footstool top is small, quick to turn round and easy to carry in, which makes it a sensible way to try a fabric before committing a whole suite to it.

Two of our case studies have Stalybridge in their story.

A Stalybridge customer brought us her late father’s wingback armchair along with his Greater Manchester Police uniforms. The chair was rebuilt from the frame up and covered in the uniform wool, stripes and badge number included. The full story is on the police uniform wingback chair.

A worn riser-recliner came into the workshop with a sound frame and a working mechanism. We kept the mechanism, cleaned and serviced it, and recovered the chair in a floral fabric with plain footrest panels. See the riser-recliner floral recover if you or a parent have a recliner that is still comfortable but looks tired.

If a sofa will not fit in the car, we can collect it from anywhere in SK15, from the town centre out to Millbrook, Carrbrook and the streets off Mottram Road. Collection is around £55 + VAT both ways and is never free. Most domestic jobs take two to four weeks, and a single dining chair is often back within a week.

The workshop is on Grosvenor Street, so a Stalybridge venue is as close to us as a customer gets. We come to look at the job, and the site visit is free for venue work. Pub seating and banquettes covers booths and bench runs, and a single banquette can be turned round overnight. Bar stools are recovered in batches, and social and members’ clubs get the same phased approach for concert rooms and lounges. Commercial work is Crib 5, and the handover pack has the fire certificates and care instructions. Commercial upholstery explains the process from brief to handover.

• A sofa or suite from SK15 with a sound frame: sofa and suite recovering, starting with a frame check.
• Need only the foam renewed: foam replacement and cut to size, in the grade that suits the seat.
• Older pieces from Stalybridge: reupholstery and rejuvenation, restored the way they were built where that makes sense.
• A broken spring, split seam or collapsed seat: repairs and restoration, sorted without a full recover.
