Have you ever wondered what you’re actually paying for when it’s time to service your hot tub? As a hot tub owner, you want your investment to last—without any unwelcome surprises. Regular servicing is the simple
answer, but figuring out the costs, what’s included, and whether you’ll be hit with hidden fees can feel overwhelming. In this post, we’ll break it all down, from average prices to why a solid service routine with the right team
isn’t just good sense—it can actually save you money in the long run.
The Real Cost of Hot Tub Servicing
Let’s start with a straightforward answer: the average cost of a full hot tub service in the UK typically begins at £295. This is the starting rate offered by Spa Simple, and it’s representative of the level of professional care you
can expect in the South West and Bristol area. While this figure may vary slightly depending on the size and brand of your hot tub or if you need additional repairs, most regular servicing stays within this price range.
For more basic call-out services—perhaps for a quick breakdown or minor fix—the starting price is from £95. These figures offer transparency and help you plan; you know where you stand before any work begins.
Here’s a quick breakdown of Spa Simple’s typical service options:
Full Hot Tub Service: Starting at £295
Call-Out for Repairs: From £95
Swim Spa Opening/Closing Services: £295 (ideal for seasonal maintenance)
Bespoke Repairs: Quoted individually, ensuring you only pay for what you need
Regular servicing might seem like an investment, but it’s one that pays off. Staying ahead of routine maintenance helps you avoid emergency repairs, which can be considerably more expensive.
What Is Actually Included in a Hot Tub Service?
It’s fair to ask: what are you getting for your money? A professional hot tub service isn’t just a quick wipe-down—it’s a comprehensive check that covers all of the essentials, so your hot tub keeps running as it should..
Here’s what’s typically included in a Spa Simple full hot tub service:
Full Inspection: Engineers will check all functions of your hot tub, including jets, heating, pumps, lights, and controls.
Internal and External Clean: The shell, cover, and filters are thoroughly cleaned using industry-safe products.
Water System Flush: Pipes and internal plumbing are flushed to clear biofilm, limescale, and other contaminants.
Water Refill and Chemical Balance: Old water is drained, the tub is refilled, and chemicals are balanced to maintain safe and healthy bathing conditions.
Filter Deep Clean: Filters are removed and professionally cleaned or replaced if needed.
Electrical and Mechanical Check: All electrical components, including the control panel and wiring, are inspected for wear, faults, or signs of repair.
Comprehensive Report: You receive a summary of checks carried out, with advice for any parts that may need future attention.
f you’re looking for more specific help with issues like leaks or electrical faults, technicians can handle hot tub repair as a tailored service, ensuring you only pay for the repairs you actually need.

Why Regular Servicing Matters
It’s tempting to put off regular maintenance, especially if your hot tub seems to be running fine. However, the truth is that small problems can escalate quickly, leading to bigger and costlier repairs down the road. Routine
hot tub servicing dramatically reduces the likelihood of a breakdown, which in turn means less hassle and more hot tub time for you.
Regular service checks don’t just safeguard against major repair bills—they also help keep energy bills lower by ensuring your hot tub is running efficiently. Clean filters, balanced water, and checked pumps all contribute to
smoother, trouble-free operation, which is particularly relevant if your hot tub sees frequent use or is part of a holiday let business.
