Installation & Removal

Hot Tub Installation & Removal

All new or restored spas purchased with The Hot Tub Shop include full service installation within the Fraser Valley. Have a hot tub that needs to come out first? We can do that too!

We provide or arrange for all necessary equipment; situate the spa; complete all connections to the existing electrical supply; and provide instructions for use and water care.

We have years of expertise in maneuvering Hot Tubs in numerous situations. On occasion, crane services are necessary. We work closely with local operators to get the job done.

See FAQ below for more detailed information.

We do not offer concrete or gravel pads construction, but contact us if you'd like a recommendation for this service. Or if you're fairly handy, we have detailed instructions on a DIY Aggregate Pad that Alistair is happy to offer advice on.

If possible, yes, please! Alistair will provide himself, tools, and access to hire additional help, but you can save yourself $$ by providing a few abled bodies to help pull/push the hot tub into position. (2-3 Persons)

Do you purchase old Hot Tubs?

Depends on the condition & ease of access. We often provide free removal, and you'll save on labour rates & dump fees! If the tub is relatively easy to load and in fair condition, compensation can be discussed. Please use the uploader to send us photos of the tub to see if you qualify for Free Removal.
