Can anyone with some knowledge tell me if there is anything else I have to do to prepare for the delivery. I have line up a plumber and electician for connections later. Hope someone can help me? It is nice to be important, but it's important to be nice.

So what's wrong with women anyway... My question is - how the hell will you lift it and move it? My guess would be empty the hole. Put in the spa & level it. Pour sand in all round. Hose in water to make the sand flow into the cavities. Ed "ECOECO" At 'EcoEco', we design windows, we design the best windows, we do it for you, so that when you’re happy we are happy.

Now I know I am "planning" on getting a spa in the near future and as i build the back yard, am getting pipe in and space for decks and posts made Spa 5Jan 30, 2009 7:33 pm Thanks for the posts - it was prefab and delivered to his site. They are going to use a big crane and truck that can carry the load but I was just checking if there was anything else I forgot at my end (i.e. me not having a ounce of building nouse), but I am a practical person and always have a go at anything.
