Andrew Western, who is the leader of Trafford Council, retained the Greater Manchester constituency with a majority of nearly 10,000.
He secured 69.65% of the votes, up 9.34% on the snap general election three years ago, and with a 10.5% swing from Conservatives to Labour.
Labour's winning candidate in the by-election said his victory shows 12 years of Conservative government is coming to an end. After thanking his mother for her support, Mr Western said:"There has been a strong message sent with the result this evening. "And the people of Stretford and Urmston do not just speak for this constituency but for millions more people up and down the land, who know that this Government has been letting us down for the past 12 years.
