Tight access moves in Wigan
Narrow side returns, basement stairs, raised decks — we have the spa skates and slings for the trickier Wigan properties.
Wigan 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 stone-yard plots, terraced gardens and shared rear access every week. By the time we lift, every step of the move is already mapped out.
Old hot tubs come out of Wigan gardens as often as new ones go in. If you have a broken or unwanted spa to clear before a house sale or a landscaping job, we dismantle on site where needed and dispose responsibly. Same crew, same kit, same fixed price.
Tell us the move — we reply by return.

FAQ · Wigan
The questions we hear most often from Wigan 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.
Yes. We carry full liability and goods-in-transit cover for the spa, the property and the route. Certificates available on request before booking.
Wigan has plenty of northern town 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 Wigan 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 Wigan 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 Wigan properties with stone-yard plots, an over-the-fence or side-return route turns out cleaner.
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 Wigan job.
Tight access is the rule, not the exception, around Wigan — particularly with stone-yard plots. 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.
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 Wigan. One fixed quote covers the whole lift, not a chain of separate invoices.
Yes. Where loading or a crane requires a parking bay suspension or a permit in Wigan, we arrange it with the council in advance and roll the cost into the quote. You do not chase the paperwork — we do.
