Nothing is better than relaxing the day away in a nice hot bath. The classic, cast iron claw-footed tub has been around since the mid 1800’s and is one of our bathroom favorites. With some candles and bath salts, it adds a luxurious spa feel to most any bathroom. In addition, a claw-footed tub may add value to your home. Some surveys have shown that starter homes with these classic tubs sold for nearly 30% more than expected. Definitely something to consider if you’ve got a bathroom remodel on the horizon.
