Jacuzzi Movers in Portobello/Craigmillar
Portobello/Craigmillar gardens range from compact courtyards to long sloping plots, and the only way through is often a narrow gap nobody measured first. We measure first. We bring spa skates, adjustable slings and lawn boards, and we work in walled gardens, communal greens and stepped rear access every week. By the time we lift, every step of the move is already mapped out.
If a deck needs taking apart to get the spa out, that is part of the job — not an excuse to walk away. Boards come off cleanly, get numbered, and go back on once the spa is clear. Portobello/Craigmillar customers expect the garden to look the same when we leave. That is the standard we work to.

FAQ · Portobello/Craigmillar
Common questions from Portobello/Craigmillar hot tub owners.
The questions we hear most often from Portobello/Craigmillar 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.
How far in advance should I book?
+
Two to three weeks is comfortable, especially if a crane or permit is involved. Shorter notice in Portobello/Craigmillar is usually workable — send the details through and we will tell you honestly what the next available slot is.
Do you drain and disconnect the hot tub first?
+
We can. A full drain-down and electrical disconnect can be added to the move so the spa is ready to lift the moment we arrive. Mention it on the quote form and we will price it in.
How much does it cost to move a hot tub?
+
Every Portobello/Craigmillar move is priced on the access, the distance and the spa itself. Fill in the quote form with the pickup, the drop and a couple of photos of the route, and we will come back with a fixed itemised price.
Can you move a hot tub through the house in Portobello/Craigmillar?
+
Sometimes — it depends on doorway widths, stair turns and the shell size. We will measure first, lay full floor and doorway protection, and only carry it through if the route is genuinely safe. In a lot of Portobello/Craigmillar properties with walled gardens, an over-the-fence or side-return route turns out cleaner.
Do you move swim spas and larger units in Portobello/Craigmillar?
+
Yes — swim spas, six-to-eight seaters and oversized shells are part of the workload. They need a bigger crew, sometimes a Hiab and sometimes a road closure, but every part of that gets priced into the single quote for the Portobello/Craigmillar job.
What if access to the garden is really tight?
+
Tight access is the rule, not the exception, around Portobello/Craigmillar — particularly with walled gardens. We carry spa skates, narrow dollies and adjustable slings for side returns under a metre wide, and where the route is genuinely impossible we will arrange a crane lift.
Do you handle crane lifts in Portobello/Craigmillar?
+
Yes. Where the only way in is over the roof or fence, we arrange the crane, the slings, the spreader bar and any road permits needed in Portobello/Craigmillar. One fixed quote covers the whole lift, not a chain of separate invoices.
Do you sort parking permits and suspensions in Portobello/Craigmillar?
+
Yes. Where loading or a crane requires a parking bay suspension or a permit in Portobello/Craigmillar, we arrange it with the council in advance and roll the cost into the quote. You do not chase the paperwork — we do.
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 Portobello/Craigmillar.
How quickly can you move a hot tub in Portobello/Craigmillar?
+
Most Portobello/Craigmillar 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.
