A couch upholstered in purple velvet.
How you repair a broken leg on an upholstered couch will depend on the age and style of the piece. Home improvement stores often sell replacement legs that screw into the couch frame. Other furniture leg styles may require very different solutions such as gluing or having a furniture repair specialist fix it.

You would probably receive better answers if you uploaded a picture as there are so many styles of sofa legs it is difficult to know what type of leg or break you have.

You can either decide to replace all four (or more) legs or do a patch/repair to broken legs. Each procedure is different in every respect but something to think about. Plain and fancy legs are sold at stores like Lowe's and Home Depot.

Here is a YouTube video of one procedure:

you can either buy legs that you screw on, or some sofa legs have hanger bolts that screw into T-nuts installed into the sofa. It depends on the sofa.

Honestly, what I would do if I didn't want to invest the time and money, I'd just mount it on some cinderblocks
