You can buy an antique clawfoot tub for a few dollars or a few thousand dollars. The factors that usually determine the price are condition, size, and originality. The most commonly manufactured, and therefore, most readily available clawfoot tubs are the standard 5’ roll rim tubs. The cost increases for any tubs smaller or larger than 5’ or for any tub that is unusual in any way – a wide, flat rim, a slipper-style tub, ornate feet, etc. A 5’ roll rim tub may sell for $50 while a 5’ French double-ended clawfoot tub may sell for $2000.

The condition of the tub will also factor into its selling price. You will pay more for a tub in original condition than if there are cracks in the porcelain, stains, and nicks. An antique tub will normally have superficial scratches in the porcelain, making the most used areas of the porcelain dull. Refinishing the tub will revitalize the interior, eliminating the stains, knicks, and cracks in the porcelain. However, if the cast iron is cracked, the tub will not hold water. Tub refinishing can cost an additional $500-$1000. Refinishing is a painting process that will repair defects in the porcelain. The interior of the tub is body-filled, sanded, acid-etched, primed, and painted. The exterior is sandblasted down to the original cast iron, and then primed and painted. The tub will look smooth and brand new again, but will not last nearly as long as a new cast iron clawfoot tub. In fact, a refinished clawfoot tub has to be treated much more gently than a new tub, so if you plan on using it on a regular basis, it would be much more economical to purchase a new clawfoot bathtub.
