We buy
clawfoot tubs.
Any condition. Rusted, chipped, painted over — sitting in a barn, a fence row, or a bathroom you are about to gut. If the iron is solid, it has value, and we will come get it.
Before you scrap it
That tub is worth more than the metal.
Cast iron tubs made before the sixties were poured heavy and enameled thick. Nothing sold today comes close. Contractors haul them to the scrap yard every week for the iron price, and every one of them was worth restoring. If you are tearing out a bathroom, call before the dumpster comes.

Sarah.
1942 cast iron clawfoot.
On May 5th, 1942, the War Production Board issued Order M-126 and shut down the use of iron and steel in over four hundred civilian products. Bathtubs were on the list by name. Manufacturers got ninety days, and then the iron went to tanks and ships and landing craft instead.
Sarah was poured that year. She carries the casting date on her body — 1942, stamped in the iron, still there eighty-four years later.
The man I bought her from told me she came out of a farmhouse up in Missouri. He and his wife bought her for the place they had up there, and then work transferred him south. They moved the whole family down to Mississippi about six years ago and brought her with them. Built a beautiful two-story home. Sarah sat out in his shop the whole six years, waiting on a bathroom she never got. His wife went modern on the new house. That's how she came to me.
We stripped her down and brought her back by hand. Gloss black on the outside. Factory-clean white inside. All four original ball-and-claw feet. The original brass gooseneck faucet with the cross handles, still on her — nothing on this tub is a reproduction.
They don't pour iron like this anymore. They stopped, in fact, and when they started again after the war they never went back to doing it this way. What you're looking at is the last of a run that history closed the door on.
Already own one?
We restore them too.
If the tub stays in your house, it gets the same treatment in place — masked, stripped, repaired, etched, sprayed, and cured in your bathroom. Inside, outside, and the feet, in whatever color you want them.
Questions
Straight answers.
Do you buy clawfoot tubs in any condition?
Yes. Rusted, chipped, painted over, missing feet, sitting outside for years — if the iron is solid, it has value. Restoration is our job, not yours.
How much is my old clawfoot tub worth?
It depends on length, style, whether the original feet are with it, and how sound the iron is. Text a photo and you'll get a number before anyone drives out.
Do I have to move the tub?
No. Cast iron runs 250 to 400 pounds. Wayne brings the truck and the help and takes it out.
Do you sell restored clawfoot tubs?
Yes. Sarah, a fully restored 1942 cast iron clawfoot with original feet and brass gooseneck, is available now for $675. Availability changes, so call to see what else is on hand.
What areas do you buy tubs in?
All across North Mississippi — Oxford, Batesville, Holly Springs, Tupelo, Southaven, and the towns between. Highway 82 north to the Tennessee line.
