A sectional is a sofa made up of multiple connected pieces that form a fixed layout, most commonly an L shape or U shape. A modular sofa is composed of individual units that can be rearranged and reconfigured over time. At Mobilart, our modular sectionals combine the comfort of a sectional with the flexibility to adapt your seating arrangement as your space or lifestyle changes.

Begin by measuring the full length and width of your room, then define the exact area where the sectional will be placed. Leave at least eighteen inches of clearance between the sectional and surrounding furniture to maintain comfortable traffic flow. Be sure to measure doorways, hallways, and stairwells to confirm delivery access. Our Montreal showroom team can assist with sizing recommendations.

The ideal sectional shape depends on your room size and layout. L-shaped sectionals are versatile and work well in corners or floating layouts in medium to large spaces. U-shaped sectionals provide generous seating for open concept living areas. Chaise sectionals offer a compact lounging solution for smaller rooms or dens. Our design experts can help you choose the best configuration.

Leather sectionals should be dusted regularly and conditioned every six to twelve months to maintain softness and prevent cracking. Spills should be wiped immediately with a dry cloth. Fabric sectionals benefit from regular vacuuming. Performance fabrics can usually be spot cleaned with mild soap and water, while natural fabrics may require professional cleaning for deeper stains.

Yes, a sectional can be an excellent choice for a small living room when selected carefully. Compact L-shaped or chaise sectionals placed in a corner help maximize seating while keeping the room open. Slim arm designs reduce visual bulk, and modular options allow you to start with fewer pieces and expand later. Visit our showroom to explore apartment-friendly sectional options.
