Product description

A freestanding bath finished entirely by hand in microcement, giving the depth, movement and tactile grain of quarried limestone without the weight, the joins or the cost of solid stone. Each bath is applied, worked and sealed by our own craftsmen in the UK, so no two are ever identical.

Hand-applied microcement, over a solid surface core

The body is a seamless solid surface freestanding tub, coated in multiple layers of microcement: primer, mesh-reinforced base coats, a hand-worked finish coat and a two-part sealer. The exterior keeps its raw, mineral texture. The interior is left as a smooth, warm-to-touch matt white bathing surface that wipes clean in seconds.

Warm underfoot, quiet underwater

The solid surface core is naturally warm to the touch and holds heat far longer than steel or acrylic, so the water stays hot and the bath never feels cold against the skin. It also deadens the sound of running water, which makes a noticeable difference in an open-plan or en-suite setting.

Made to order, in your colour

This bath is finished in our natural stone tone. Microcement can be pigmented to almost any shade, from bone and chalk through to deep clay, charcoal and terracotta, so the bath can be matched to your floor, your walls or a client's scheme. Sample tiles are available before you commit.

Care

Clean with a soft cloth and a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid abrasive pads, bleach and solvent-based products on the microcement exterior. The sealer should be refreshed periodically in heavy domestic use; we supply full care instructions with every bath.

Trade and specification enquiries welcome. Bespoke sizes, colours and matching basins, vanity tops and wall finishes are available to order.

FAQs

Can I see the finish before I order?

Yes. Order the free sample set, or visit our showroom at 2/3 Borough Road, Newcastle-under-Lyme, ST5 1TJ, where the full finish range is on display. Colour on screen is only a guide, and hand-applied finishes shift with the light in a room, so we always recommend seeing a sample first.

Will mine look exactly like the photographs?

Each piece is finished by hand, so no two are identical. Expect natural movement in tone and texture. That variation is the character of the finish, not a fault.

Can I have a different size or colour?

Usually, yes. Microcement is pigmented to order and can be matched to your floor, walls or worktops. Tell us what you need using the enquiry button and we will come back with a price and lead time.

Is it suitable for wet areas?

Once sealed, microcement is fully waterproof and suitable for bathrooms, kitchens and other wet areas. Your piece is sealed in our workshop before it leaves us.

How do I look after it?

Wipe with a soft cloth and a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid bleach, abrasive pads and harsh descalers, which can dull the seal. We include care instructions with every piece.

Can I return a bespoke piece?

Because every piece is made specifically for you, bespoke and made-to-order items cannot be returned or refunded once the order is confirmed. If anything arrives damaged, tell us within 48 hours and we will put it right.
