The Best Hot Tubs for Decking
Posted on 28 September 2021

As the weather turns colder, there’s no reason you can’t still enjoy your outside space. A hot tub is great all year round and can be a beautiful partner to your decking area, creating a relaxing spa right in your back garden.

Depending on the size of the tub and the height of your decking, you might need to add some more support underneath. But the good news is that most hot tubs, including inflatable and solid tubs, can safely sit on decking if the right requirements are met. Composite decking is perfect for hot tubs because it doesn’t splinter, warp or rot, plus it’s slip-resistant.

Below are some of the best hot tubs for you to consider adding to your garden.
