Why choose copper? Heat Retention Copper baths retain the heat of your water for much longer than acrylic versions. The temperature is much better than an acrylic bath meaning that you can have a longer soak without topping up your tub! Hygiene A little-known fact that few homeowners are aware of is that copper is actually a super metal when it comes to killing germs. While most viruses can last for days on steel and glass, they are killed within hours or sometimes minutes on copper! The same applies to Brass as well! So, for those deciding on a bathroom renovation, copper baths and basins not only look stunning and bring a touch of luxury to a bathroom project but they also provide a really important function in helping the room to stay germ free. Finish Options Our Copper range is incredibly versatile and we have expanded our range to include Antique, Verdigris, Patinata and Enamel finishes alongside Nickel & Tin. Our copper baths BC Designs beautiful copper baths are handcrafted using traditional techniques. They are hand-made and every bathtub is a unique work of art completely different from one to the next. All of the curves and bends are made with no more than a hammer, an experienced eye and a strong arm. Variations and undulations will occur which is why each piece is distinctive. There will be blemishes, marks and small scratches in some areas and inevitably, due to the authentic characteristics of the material, surface textures will be visible. Our copper baths add character to a bathroom and you have the option of maintaining its beautiful shine or leaving it to age and weather over time. Our copper baths are made from 99.5%+ 15-18 gauge pure copper.

Polished Copper, Brass & Enamel finishes unlacquered Routinely clean with warm water and a non abrasive cloth and dry immediately after use. Avoid dripping taps, sharp objects and the use of harsh chemicals. Maintain the finish by re-applying a suitable wax seal (we recommend Renaissance Wax) regularly every 4-6 weeks depending on use. More usage will require more maintenance. If the wax wears off and oxidisation develops on the copper surface, clean the bath with a fine metal cleaner, such as Autosol, and then re-apply the wax. Please be aware that these models are not lacquered and will require regular maintenance to keep them shiny.

To keep the nickel finish in premium condition, the wax seal should be maintained by regular reapplication. Do not use abrasive metal cleaner on nickel plated items as this could wear through the finish. A small amount of 'Peek' metal cleaner can be used on minor tarnishing.

Our Tin Boat bath requires little maintenance. Routinely clean with warm water and a non abrasive cloth and dry immediately after use.
