Volunteers working in the salvage store have been helping residents to find spare parts for their flats since 2007. It’s not always easy to get enough original fittings to satisfy demand for replacements so if you are planning to modernise your flat please contact Barbican Salvage before work begins to discuss whether any original fittings may be re-useable.
The Salvage store is open about once every three weeks, subject to demand – so if you would like to visit and search for spare parts first need to contact us and explain what you need. We have good stocks of most items that are made of wood or laminates but most plumbing and electrical fittings and ceramics are in short supply. If we might have what you need, we will let you know in advance when the store will next be open so as you can attend.
You will have to find the parts you need yourself so please bring old fittings where possible, or take photographs and accurate measurements.
Barbican Salvage is below the south end of Willoughby house at basement level 03 and there is lift access from the podium at the junction of Andrewes and Willoughby (using the Barbican master key)
