Any one experienced in installing hot tubs or spas? If so, what labor do you typically charge and what difficulties do you experience.
Thanks.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
More'n I want to count or remember.
Shouldn't say that, all of them were pretty good jobs for mostly decent customers. Just plenty of work back before I was smart enough to know that the boss has to get paid too.
So, I have all of IMERCs questions, too.
Oh, and a make-up-your-mind one, spas & whirlpools are pretty much synonymous; hot, or soaking, tubs are a different animal--two different sorts of goals/plans/results. That is, if you're trying to get it "right."
One does not want to swap the very nice hand-coopered soaking tub for the FG whirlpool--or vice versa--even as a "learning experience" . . . (The one thing I did not have, that I needed/should have had for business, was a spot with each of the types of things available--hindsight is so very sharp.)
