St. George outdoor living is a big deal. Patios, decks, and backyard entertainment areas are central to the lifestyle here. But when a hot tub breaks down, ages out, or you simply want the space for something else, getting rid of it is a serious project. Hot tubs weigh 500 to 1,000 pounds, they are awkward to maneuver, and they require disconnection from electrical and plumbing systems. Our crew handles all of it.
Our Hot Tub Removal Process
- Draining — If the hot tub still holds water, we drain it completely before starting the removal.
- Disconnection — We disconnect electrical wiring (240V hookups) and any plumbing connections. Gas heater lines are properly capped if applicable.
- Dismantling — Most hot tubs cannot be carried out in one piece due to their size and weight. We saw the shell into manageable sections on-site using specialized tools. The frame, plumbing, and motor are separated for recycling.
- Hauling — All pieces are loaded onto our truck and removed from your property.
- Cleanup — We clean the area where the hot tub sat, removing debris and leaving your patio or deck clean.
Types of Hot Tubs We Remove
- Portable acrylic hot tubs — The most common type in St. George backyards. 400 to 800 pounds dry weight.
- Wooden hot tubs — Cedar and redwood barrel-style tubs
- In-ground spas — Built into decks or patios. Requires more demolition work.
- Swim spas — Larger units used for exercise. Can weigh 1,000+ pounds.
- Inflatable hot tubs — Quick and easy removal, minimal cost
Why St. George Homeowners Remove Hot Tubs
- Broken or aging — Repair costs often exceed the value of an old hot tub. Pumps, heaters, and jets fail after 10 to 15 years.
- Selling the home — An old, non-functional hot tub is a liability during home showings, not an asset.
- Reclaiming outdoor space — Make room for a new patio, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, or just open yard space.
- Water conservation — In the Southern Utah desert, some homeowners prefer to eliminate the ongoing water usage.
- Safety concerns — Old hot tubs with broken covers can be a hazard, especially for young children and pets.
