Question 1

How often should a holiday-let hot tub be serviced?

Accepted Answer

In peak South Hams season — especially Salcombe and Dartmouth with back-to-back weekends — weekly or fortnightly visits are common. Quieter months can stretch out. We set a cadence after the first service visit, looking at occupancy, tub volume, and what your housekeepers already do midweek.

Question 2

Do you supply chemicals as part of a programme?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can stage sanitiser, pH adjusters, and shock, with dosing notes that don’t assume your cleaner is a chemist. Exact products depend on bromine vs chlorine and what the water is doing — we specify after testing on site.

Question 3

What happens if the spa breaks between guests?

Accepted Answer

Tell us the symptoms, any error code on the topside, and when the next guests arrive. We diagnose heaters, pumps, and controllers on site, then repair or order parts. You’ll get a straight update so you can manage the listing — not a vague holding message.

Question 4

How much does hot tub servicing cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends on visit type, chemistry needs, filter condition, and whether parts are involved. We quote after a service visit so you know what’s included before work is booked. We don’t publish hard package prices — every spa and occupancy pattern runs differently.

Question 5

Can you work with our cleaners and co-hosts?

Accepted Answer

Yes. After visits we leave plain notes — what we balanced, what to dose midweek, and what not to tip in. Plenty of South Hams owners manage from London; clear handover notes are part of the job.

Question 6

Do you winterise spas?

Accepted Answer

We do. Spring open-up before Easter and winter drain-down or reduced-use care for coastal Devon decks. The right approach depends on whether guests still use the spa through quieter months — we’ll say which on the visit.

Question 7

Which areas of the South Hams do you cover?

Accepted Answer

Totnes, Dartmouth, Salcombe, Kingsbridge, Modbury, Ivybridge, and nearby coastal and estuary villages. Not sure? Drop your postcode when you book a service visit and we’ll confirm.

Question 8

What should I prepare before a service visit?

Accepted Answer

Safe access to the spa and equipment bay, any recent guest comments about heat or water feel, and housekeeper notes if you have them. Leave existing chemicals visible — we’ll say if a change is worth making.

Question 9

Do you install brand-new hot tubs?

Accepted Answer

Our day job is servicing, chemistry, maintenance, and repairs on spas that are already in. If you’ve just had a new tub installed, we can take over ongoing care and readiness checks.

Question 10

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

Book a service visit on the website or call 01548 123456. We’ll pick a slot that fits your turnover calendar and start with a clear look at the spa.
