Barbican Estate homes and their sealant

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Prior Weston Primary School and Children's Centre, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

About our regrouting in Barbican Estate
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. If you’re dealing with gaps where the shower grout has gone and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. In Barbican Estate, regrouting is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the size of the job. In Barbican Estate, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Common problems we fix in Barbican Estate
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
Homes close to St Giles-without-Cripplegate include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
What to look for in a quote
- Is VAT in the price?
- How hidden problems are handled
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.

Why deal with it now?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Barbican Estate, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Common questions in Barbican Estate
Is parking a problem for a job in Barbican Estate?
Parking in Barbican Estate, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Moorgate station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Do you work in Barbican Estate?
Yes. We’re based in Crawley and work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. Many clients do. Darker grout can hide marks, while lighter grout brightens a room.
