One Local Team, the Whole BCP & East Dorset Area
Wherever your hot tub is in the conurbation — a balcony in Boscombe, a Sandbanks seafront garden, a big detached plot in Ferndown or a riverside cottage outside Wimborne — you're covered by the same local repair team. We fix the brands people around here actually own: Lay-Z-Spa, Intex PureSpa, MSpa, CleverSpa and Wave inflatables, plus most hard-shell spas. Most repairs cost under £100 and simple faults are often sorted in under an hour on the first visit.

Coast or Countryside — Dorset Is Hard on Hot Tubs
Our patch splits into two kinds of hot tub territory, and each kills tubs in its own way:
The coastal strip — Poole, Bournemouth & Christchurch. Salt-laden sea air accelerates corrosion on control-box terminals, heater relays and pump connections, especially near the harbour, Sandbanks, Southbourne and Mudeford. On seafront call-outs we always check connections and seals — corroded terminals are one of the most common causes of a tub tripping the electrics.
The inland river valleys — Wimborne, Ferndown, West Parley & Longham. Where the Stour, Allen and Uddens Water run, gardens sit on water meadows and gravel terraces with a high water table. Ground damp creeps into RCD plugs and control boxes on tubs at the end of long outdoor leads in big rural gardens — a five-minute seal check on our visits that heads off an expensive control-board failure.
And everywhere: hard water. Most of the area sits in or beside the Wessex Water Poole Town supply zone at roughly 295 ppm calcium carbonate — firmly "hard", well above the UK average. Heated to 37–40°C, that calcium crusts onto the heater element and flow sensor, which is why early heater failure is the classic Dorset hot tub fault. If your tub is slow to heat or won't hold temperature, scale is the first thing we check — and a scale inhibitor on every refill is the cheapest protection you can buy.
