+974 7446 9660How much does it cost to make a sofa or Majlis in Doha?
Custom sofa and Majlis cost in Doha comes down to three things: the size and seat count, the foam density you choose, and the fabric or leather grade. A simple three-seater in mid-range fabric costs far less than a full L-shape Majlis set in high-density foam with imported fabric.
Because these choices swing the price so much, sofa and Majlis work is quoted after a free inspection where seat count, frame, foam grade, and material are confirmed — so you get an honest written figure instead of a guess.

Fix the Sofa, or Build a New One?
The honest answer usually comes down to one thing: the frame.
When the frame is still solid
Cheaper, faster, and the right call for most sofas that just look tired.
- Seat foam has flattened or sagged
- Fabric is faded, stained, or torn
- A spring or webbing has gone
- You like the shape and size as-is
- Frame is wooden and still strong
When the frame is done, or it's custom
Costs more but lasts longer — and lets you get the exact size you want.
- Wooden frame is cracked or broken
- Sofa is well past its usable life
- You need a specific size or L-shape
- Building a Majlis to fit the room
- You want a brand-new design
Our promise: at the free inspection we tell you which one your sofa actually needs — even when that's the cheaper repair rather than the bigger new build.
From Inspection to Installed
Clear steps, a written quote, and no surprises at the end.
1. Free inspection & measurement
We come to you, measure the room or the sofa, and bring fabric and leather samples. For Majlis we take the wall runs so the set is built to fit exactly.
2. Written quote & choices confirmed
You choose the foam density, fabric, and design. We put the price, materials, and completion date in writing before any work begins.
3. Built or restored in our workshop
The frame is built or reinforced, new foam and webbing go in, and the covers are cut and stitched by hand for a clean, lasting finish.
4. Delivered & fitted at your place
We deliver, position the sofa or Majlis, and make sure it sits right in the room — the finished job you approved, in place and ready to use.
Why One Sofa Costs More Than Another
There's no single sofa price — these are the choices that move it up or down.
| Cost Factor | What It Means | Effect on Price |
|---|---|---|
| Seat Count & Size | 3-seater vs full L-shape or Majlis run | Biggest factor |
| Foam Density | High-density lasts; low-density flattens fast | High impact |
| Fabric / Leather Grade | Local fabric vs imported fabric or real leather | High impact |
| New Build vs Re-cover | Full frame build vs keeping your frame | Medium–High |
| Design Complexity | Plain vs tufted, channelled, or curved work | Medium |
| Delivery & Fitting | Included and confirmed in your quote | Quoted with job |
Why we don't post a fixed price: a plain three-seater re-cover and a custom high-density Majlis set are worlds apart in cost, so a single number on a website would only mislead you. Send your seat count and a photo on WhatsApp, or book the free inspection, and you'll get an honest written figure for your exact job — nothing added afterwards.
Getting Sofa & Majlis Work Right in Qatar
Most sofa and Majlis problems in Doha come back to one quiet decision that gets made wrong: the foam. A sofa can look perfect the day it's delivered and still sag within a few months if cheap low-density foam was used to shave the price. In Qatar's heat, that soft foam breaks down even faster. The frame and the fabric get all the attention, but the foam is what you actually sit on every day — and it's where corners get cut.
So when you compare quotes, don't just compare the total. Ask what foam density is going into the seat, because that single line is the difference between seating that holds up for years and seating you'll be complaining about by next summer.
Why Arabic Majlis is made, not bought
A Majlis isn't a standard three-piece suite. It's built to run along the walls of the room, turning the corners, so the seat length and corner pieces have to match your exact wall measurements. Buy a fixed-size set and you either leave awkward gaps or it doesn't fit at all. That's the whole reason Majlis is made to order — the room decides the dimensions, not a showroom. Seat height, back height, armrest style, and fabric are all chosen to suit how the space is used, whether it's a family majlis or one for receiving guests.
What to check before you commit
- Ask the foam density — high-density for seats that get daily use, softer grades only for backs
- See the fabric in daylight — colours look very different under showroom lights than at home
- Get the completion date in writing — especially if imported fabric has to arrive first
- Confirm delivery & fitting are included — so it isn't added as an extra at the end
- Repair before you replace — if the frame is solid, re-covering is cheaper and just as good
Three ways to spend smart, not just cheap
Pay for foam, save on trends. Put the money into high-density foam and a solid frame — those you sit on daily; a trendy fabric you may want changed in a few years anyway.
Re-cover before you re-buy. If your frame is still strong, new foam and fabric can make it feel brand new for a fraction of a full new build.
One team for the whole room. Doing sofa, Majlis, and curtains together with one workshop is easier to match and simpler to price than juggling three shops.
Whether it's a single sagging sofa or a full Majlis for a new villa, the approach is the same: inspect honestly, use the right foam for how each piece is used, confirm the material and price in writing, and finish the room properly. If you're fitting out a whole space, this pairs naturally with our carpenter services in Doha for built-ins and woodwork, our curtain making and fixing to match the seating, and even smart lock installation when you're upgrading the home as a whole.
Sofa & Majlis FAQ
What people ask us before ordering a new sofa or Majlis.
It depends on three things: the size and seat count, the foam density, and the fabric or leather grade. A simple three-seater in mid-range fabric costs far less than an L-shape Majlis set in high-density foam with imported fabric. Because these choices change the price so much, we quote after a free inspection. Send your seat count and a photo on WhatsApp for a written figure before any work starts.
If the wooden frame is still solid, repair or reupholstery is cheaper and just as good — we fix sagging foam, broken springs, or worn fabric. If the frame itself is cracked or the sofa is past its life, a new build lasts longer. We tell you honestly which one your sofa needs at inspection rather than pushing the bigger job.
For seating used daily, high-density foam holds its shape far longer than cheap low-density foam, which flattens within months in the heat. Majlis seating that's sat on heavily should use high-density foam in the seat and a softer grade in the back for comfort. Cheap foam is the single most common reason a sofa sags again soon after work.
Yes. Majlis is usually built to run along the walls, so the length and corner pieces are made to your exact measurements rather than bought as fixed units. We measure the room, agree the seat height, back height, fabric, and armrest style, then build the set to fit the wall runs and corners precisely. This is why Majlis is made to order.
Most upholstery and reupholstery work is finished within a few working days once materials are confirmed. A full custom sofa or complete Majlis set takes longer because the frame, foam, and covers are built from scratch, and imported fabric may need to arrive first. We give a realistic completion date at inspection and confirm it in writing.
Yes. Re-covering keeps your existing frame and replaces worn fabric or leather with a new material of your choice, often with new foam so it feels new again. It costs less than a full new sofa and is the right choice when the frame is solid but the cover is faded, torn, or dated. We bring fabric and leather samples to the inspection so you can choose before committing.
