Hot Tub Movers, Canterbury
Moving a hot tub in Canterbury takes more than a strong back and a flatbed. Our crews are the specialists Canterbury households call when a spa needs lifting out of a sunken deck, threading down a side return, or craning into a back garden without scarring the lawn. We know the conservation streets and listed boundaries that ring Canterbury, and we plan every job around the property — not the other way round.
Around Canterbury the most common move we run is a relocation between two walled courtyards — one spa, one day, two postcodes. We plan the lift at the first property, the transport leg, and the reposition at the second before we send a price. That way the quote you accept is the work that actually happens on the day.

FAQ · Canterbury
Common questions from Canterbury hot tub owners.
The questions we hear most often from Canterbury customers — access, parking, permits, weather, electrics, listed properties and pricing. If yours is not covered, drop it on the quote form and we will come back the same day.
What if the weather turns on the day?
+
Light rain is fine — the spa is wrapped and the route is covered. Storms, ice on the lift point or wind that makes a crane unsafe will get the job moved by a day or two. We would rather reschedule than risk the spa or the property in Canterbury.
How quickly can you move a hot tub in Canterbury?
+
Most Canterbury jobs are booked in within the same week. Where a completion date or removal deadline is tight, we can usually slot a priority crew in. Send your dates through the quote form and we will confirm by return.
Can you collect from a showroom and deliver in Canterbury?
+
Absolutely. New-spa delivery from dealers and showrooms into Canterbury is one of the most common jobs we run. Send us the collection address and the drop, and we will quote both legs together.
Do I need to be home on the day?
+
Ideally yes, at the start and the end, so we can walk the route with you and sign the spa off in place. If you cannot be there, we can usually arrange access via a neighbour or agent — just flag it on the quote form.
Do you handle the electrics?
+
We isolate and disconnect the spa for the move. For the reconnection at the new spot, a Part P qualified electrician needs to sign off the supply — if you do not have one, we can recommend a local sparks who works with us regularly.
Do you cover the whole of Canterbury?
+
Yes. Every part of Canterbury and the outlying areas is covered. If your property is set back from the road, on a private lane or has restricted access, we will arrange a free site survey before quoting.
Do you take old hot tubs away?
+
Yes. We remove, dismantle and dispose of unwanted hot tubs responsibly. If the spa still has life in it we will say so and try to rehome it rather than scrap it.
Can you reposition a hot tub in the same Canterbury garden?
+
Often. If you are relaying a patio, replacing decking or re-landscaping a Canterbury garden, we can lift the spa, set it aside, and reposition it once the work is done. Quoted as a single job.
Will the weight damage my patio or paving?
+
A filled spa is heavy, but an empty one on rated dollies spreads the load across protective boards. We never pivot or skid a hot tub on bare patio — every contact point is padded, and we check the base it is going onto before we set it down.
What payment methods do you accept?
+
Bank transfer or card on completion. No deposit is taken for a standard move; for crane-lift jobs in particular we will agree the schedule in writing before the date is locked in.
