Copper baths are meticulously handcrafted using traditional techniques, ensuring each bathtub is a unique masterpiece. Every curve and bend is formed solely with a hammer, a skilled eye, and a strong arm, resulting in distinctive variations that make each piece truly one-of-a-kind. These baths imbue any bathroom with character, offering the choice to preserve their radiant shine or allow them to develop a natural patina over time.
Heat Retention
Copper baths excel in retaining heat far longer than their acrylic counterparts, allowing for luxuriously extended soaks without the need to replenish hot water.
Hygiene
Copper possesses remarkable antimicrobial properties, effectively eliminating germs within hours or even minutes, unlike steel and glass where viruses can persist for days. This extends to brass as well, making copper baths and basins not only a stunning and opulent addition to any bathroom but also an essential feature for maintaining a hygienic environment.

Painted
Customers can choose their own paint color to match their scheme from manufacturers such as Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, and Fenwick & Tilbrook. All roll-top baths are painted to order in a workshop located in Colchester, Essex.
The Process
The in-house specialist begins by keying the bath and then coating it with a water-based primer/sealer. Using a roller, the bath is then painted with three or more coats of the chosen color. Exterior Eggshell paint, which has a 20% sheen finish, is used. This paint is durable, eco-friendly, and has a breathable finish. It is resistant to flaking, peeling, and color fade for up to six years, provided care instructions for the surface are followed. The paint is also water and fungal-resistant, washable, and wipeable. The bath undergoes several processes and quality checks to ensure a perfect finish.
Whichever paint is chosen, it must be available in an Exterior Eggshell finish and fit for purpose. In addition to these paint ranges, baths can also be painted in a choice of RAL Classic colors or British Standard colors.
Please allow 20-25 working days for delivery of the painted bath. Full color swatches can be ordered directly from the Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, or Fenwick & Tilbrook websites. RAL colors are also available.
The painted Boat bath is a bespoke product, and liability for the chosen color cannot be accepted. It is the customer's responsibility to check the paint before ordering, as returns cannot be accepted on this basis.
