About Watchet
Watchet is about 7 miles east of Minehead, in Somerset. We travel to homes and businesses in Watchet, so there’s no workshop to go to. Watchet is one of 640 towns and villages in Somerset where we work.
Our visits in TA23 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. Local streets include Market Street, Flowerdale Road and Quantock Road, and we cover them all. Watchet is on the B3190 and B3191, so it’s easy for us to reach. Nearby, we also work in Doniford (1 mile east), Williton (1 mile south-east), Sampford Brett (2 miles south-east), Washford (2 miles south-west) and Chapel Cleeve (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Taunton (15 miles south-east), Bridgwater (15 miles east), Minehead (7 miles west), Burnham-on-Sea (15 miles east), Wellington (14 miles south) and Sydenham (15 miles east).

About our bath re-enamelling in Watchet
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Watchet. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we are called out for in Watchet
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Wear marks under the taps
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
FAQs for Watchet
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Watchet?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
