Hot Tub Repair
Something stopped working and you don't know why. We trace the fault through the heater, pump, controls and plumbing, then fix the part that is actually failing. You hear the cause in plain words first.

Who we are
We repair hot tubs for people in and around Leander. When yours stops heating, starts leaking, or throws a code you can't decode, we come out, find the cause, and tell you what we found before anything gets touched.
We keep it simple. You get a straight explanation of the problem, a clear recommendation, and a repair that addresses the real fault rather than the first thing that looks suspicious.
Our Services
Maintenance & Cleaning
Drain, scrub, flush the lines, rinse the filters, and reset your water chemistry. It's the routine work that keeps small problems from turning into expensive ones, handled on a schedule that fits your tub.
Learn moreLeak Detection & Repair
Water level dropping and nothing obvious underneath? We pressure-test the plumbing and inspect fittings, jets and equipment to pinpoint the leak, then repair it without guessing.
Learn moreHeater & Pump Repair
Lukewarm water, a humming pump, or jets that barely push. We test the heater, flow switches, sensors and motors, then repair or replace only what has failed.
Learn moreCommon Hot Tub Problems We Fix
- 01
Heater not heating
The tub runs all day and the water never gets past lukewarm, or it heats and then quits. Usual suspects are a scaled-up heating element, a failed sensor, a clogged filter starving the heater of flow, or a tripped hi-limit. We test each before recommending a part.
- 02
Leaks and water loss
If you keep topping off the tub, water is going somewhere. It might be a pump seal, a loose union, a cracked fitting, or a jet gasket. We track the leak to its source instead of tearing the cabinet apart at random.
- 03
Pump or jet problems
A pump that screams, hums without moving water, or produces weak jets is telling you something. Air locks, worn bearings, blocked intakes and failing motors all sound a little different, and we know which is which.
- 04
Error codes on the panel
Flashing codes like FLO, OH or sensor faults point to a specific circuit, but the displayed code is only a starting point. We confirm the real cause so you aren't swapping parts to chase a message.
- 05
Tripping breakers and electrical trouble
A breaker or GFCI that keeps tripping is a safety device doing its job. Water in a connection, a failing heater element or a shorted pump can all cause it. Leave the tub off and call us instead of resetting it repeatedly.
- 06
Cloudy or foamy water
Murky water, foam that won't settle, or a stubborn smell usually comes down to filters, oils, balance, or a tub that needs a full drain. We sort out which, and clean the system so the fix lasts.

Hot Tubs in Leander Take a Beating
Water in the Leander area runs hard. Central Texas supplies are loaded with dissolved minerals, and those minerals don't stay dissolved once they meet a hot heating element. Scale cakes onto heaters, clouds up the plumbing and clogs jets. A tub that heated fine two years ago can slowly lose ground without anything dramatic happening. Leander's treated water comes from Lake Travis through the regional treatment plant, and the lake's mineral content is the starting point for what ends up in your spa.
Then there is the summer. Texas heat means plenty of tubs sit untouched for weeks. Water that isn't circulated or tested drifts out of balance, sanitizer burns off, and by the time you want a soak in October the water is cloudy and the filter is coated. We see a lot of calls that began as a neglected summer.
Winter has its own surprise. Most years a hard freeze is rare, but when one hits, tubs that aren't running or protected can crack pipes, split fittings and damage pumps. February 2021 taught plenty of Central Texas owners that lesson. If you suspect freeze damage, don't just power up the tub and hope.
We work in Leander ZIP code 78641 and out toward 78645, in neighborhoods like Crystal Falls, Travisso, Bryson and Mason Hills, where backyard tubs are a normal part of the landscape.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can someone come out?
It depends on the day's schedule and how far out you are. When you call or text, we'll give you the earliest window we have, not a vague 'sometime this week.' If the tub is dead and the water is cold, tell us. We'll work with that.
Do you work on all brands?
We work on the common makes you'll find in Leander backyards, and the core systems are similar across them: heater, pump, circuit board, sensors, plumbing. If you have something unusual, tell us the brand when you call and we'll give you an honest answer on whether we can help.
Is it worth repairing or should I replace it?
Often a repair is the sensible move, especially if the shell and frame are in good shape. Replacement starts to make sense when the shell is cracked, the frame has rotted, or multiple major systems are failing at once. We'll give you our honest read after looking at it.
Why is my hot tub not heating?
Common causes are a dirty or clogged filter limiting flow, scale on the heating element, a failed temperature sensor, a tripped hi-limit, or a bad element. Check the filter and the panel for a code. If it's not that, call us. Don't keep forcing it to run.
How often should I drain it?
A common rule is every three to four months, depending on how often it's used and how many people use it. Heavy use or hard water may call for sooner. A tub that sits unused for long stretches still needs regular testing and attention.
What should I do if it froze?
Turn the power off at the breaker and leave it off. Don't try to run the pumps or heater on frozen plumbing, since that can burn out a motor. Let it thaw, check for leaks and cracked fittings, and give us a call before restarting if anything looks wrong.
