Tight access moves in Wandsworth
Narrow side returns, basement stairs, raised decks — we have the spa skates and slings for the trickier Wandsworth properties.
Hot tubs are heavy, awkward and unforgiving of mistakes. Wandsworth homeowners book us because we treat every move like a furniture removal and an engineering job at once — measured, padded, strapped and lifted by people who do nothing else. The kit on the van suits London access — terraced rows, mews, basement flats and shared side returns; the crew has done the same kind of move on the same kind of street, many times before.
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. Wandsworth customers expect the garden to look the same when we leave. That is the standard we work to.
Tell us the move — we reply by return.

FAQ · Wandsworth
The questions we hear most often from Wandsworth 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.
Often. If you are relaying a patio, replacing decking or re-landscaping a Wandsworth garden, we can lift the spa, set it aside, and reposition it once the work is done. Quoted as a single job.
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.
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.
Not when it is planned properly. We use lawn protection boards, lift the spa rather than drag it, and remove and refit deck sections cleanly where the route demands it. The garden looks the same when we leave.
Yes. We carry full liability and goods-in-transit cover for the spa, the property and the route. Certificates available on request before booking.
Wandsworth has plenty of london borough properties with listed walls, cobbled access or planning sensitivities. We work around them — no chases cut, no fixings into protected stonework, and lifting kit chosen so the building stays untouched.
Two to three weeks is comfortable, especially if a crane or permit is involved. Shorter notice in Wandsworth is usually workable — send the details through and we will tell you honestly what the next available slot is.
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.
Every Wandsworth 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.
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 Wandsworth properties with walled town gardens, an over-the-fence or side-return route turns out cleaner.
