Roller blinds at Al Noor start at AED 45 per square foot supplied and fitted. A standard 4ft × 5ft bedroom window works out around AED 900. Blackout fabric adds roughly 15%, and motorising a roller blind starts at AED 750 per window.

A zebra blind has alternating sheer and solid horizontal stripes on one roller. Sliding it lets you line the stripes up for full privacy or offset them to let filtered daylight through, giving you the effect of two blinds in one fitting.

Roman blinds use less fabric and take up no wall space either side of the window, which suits smaller Sharjah apartments. Curtains insulate better against heat and cover very wide windows more economically. Many customers use Roman blinds in living rooms and blackout curtains in bedrooms.

Yes. We add a blackout backing behind the face fabric, so you keep the decorative look while blocking light almost completely — a common choice for bedrooms that face the morning sun.

They are the cheapest way to cover large window areas, they angle to kill screen glare without blacking the room out, and when one louvre is damaged you replace that single strip rather than the whole unit. For a Sharjah office floor that adds up to a much lower cost of ownership.

Yes. We fit vertical blinds for offices, clinics, schools, hotels and staff accommodation across Sharjah and Dubai, and quote per project for fit-out contractors.

Faux wood is the safer choice in the UAE. It looks almost identical, costs less, and will not warp in the humidity of a kitchen, bathroom or ground-floor villa. We recommend real basswood mainly for dry, air-conditioned living rooms and majlis where the grain is worth the premium.

Yes — they are the best option for those rooms. Unlike wood or fabric, aluminium slats do not absorb steam, warp or stain with cooking grease, and they can be wiped down with a damp cloth. That makes them the longest-lasting choice for a UAE kitchen window.

Carpet tiles for almost every Sharjah office. When a section is stained or worn you lift and swap those tiles instead of recarpeting the floor, and they can be laid around desks without shutting the office down. Broadloom carpet gives a more seamless finish for boardrooms and majlis.

Quality laminate with a moisture-barrier underlay performs well in air-conditioned Sharjah apartments and villas. We do not recommend it for kitchens, bathrooms or ground-floor rooms that see standing water — vinyl or PVC is the correct choice there.

Vinyl in almost every UAE case. It costs less, is fully waterproof, and will not swell at the joints the way laminate does if water sits on it. Laminate is worth considering only in dry, permanently air-conditioned rooms where you want a slightly harder, more traditional feel underfoot.

They are chemically the same material — the difference is format and grade. We use 'vinyl' for the click-plank LVT used in homes, and 'PVC' for the wide heavy-duty rolls with heat-welded seams used in offices, clinics, kitchens and warehouses where a seamless, hygienic, hard-wearing surface is required.

A full customized majlis set from Al Noor starts around AED 3,500 and typically lands between AED 5,000 and AED 12,000 depending on the room's length, foam density and fabric grade. We build it in our own Sharjah workshop, so you choose exact dimensions, fabric and firmness rather than buying a fixed showroom size.

Usually yes. Send photos and we will match the style, height and fabric as closely as the current market allows — useful when extending seating into a larger room or replacing a damaged section.

A customized 3-seater from Al Noor starts at AED 2,200 and typically runs AED 3,000–6,000 depending on size, fabric and foam grade. An L-shape or corner unit generally starts around AED 4,500.

Yes, and if the frame is solid it is usually the better value. Re-covering with new fabric and foam typically costs 40–60% of a comparable new sofa, and older hardwood frames are often better built than what is sold at that price today.

Yes — that is one of the most common reasons customers come to us. Send the mattress dimensions and we build the frame around it, which solves the problem of imported or older mattresses that do not fit UAE retail bed sizes.

Yes — full-height, wall-to-wall upholstered panels are one of our most requested pieces. We build them in sections in the workshop and assemble them on the wall at your home, so there is no problem getting them through doors or lifts.

A built-in unit uses the full floor-to-ceiling height and the full wall width, which typically gives 30–40% more storage in the same footprint than a freestanding wardrobe, with no dust-collecting gap on top. It also lets us work around awkward corners, columns and AC ducts that a ready-made unit cannot.

Yes — narrow and long tables are one of the most common custom requests in Sharjah apartments, where the dining space is often a corridor-shaped section of the living room. We build to whatever width still leaves comfortable clearance to walk past.

With UV-stable outdoor fabric, expect 3 to 5 years before noticeable fading. Ordinary indoor upholstery fabric used outdoors will typically fade badly within a single UAE summer, which is why we quote outdoor work only in proper outdoor-grade material.

Re-upholstering a sofa at Al Noor costs from AED 250 per seat including fabric and new foam, so a typical 3-seater runs AED 750–1,500 depending on the fabric grade. An L-shape or corner sofa is quoted per running metre after a free inspection.

Almost always. Sagging is usually failed webbing or collapsed foam rather than a broken frame. We re-web the base and fit new high-density foam, which restores the original firmness — and you can ask for it firmer than it was, which most customers do.

Yes. Where one wall of seating has faded in the sun or a section has worn, we can re-cover that run alone and match it to the rest. Doing it in stages also spreads the cost, which suits larger majlis.

A tight-weave stain-resistant fabric or a good leatherette. Both wipe clean, which matters far more on a dining chair than the fabric's look — loose-weave decorative fabrics trap food and stain permanently within a year of normal family use.

If the fabric is clean and unworn but the seat sinks when you sit, you only need foam — that is roughly a third of the cost of a full re-upholstery. If the fabric is faded, torn or stained, do both at once, since the labour of removing the covers is the same either way.

Yes — this is one of the main reasons customers order both from us. Because the curtains and the bedcover are cut in the same workshop from the same roll, the match is exact rather than approximate, which is almost impossible to achieve buying them separately.
