Want your hot tub surroundings to look nice, but don’t want the hassle of a major custom installation? Good news. That’s absolutely possible.

The owner of Best Hot Tubs’ New York showrooms (Westbury, Farmingdale, Windham), Bill Renter, previously owned a build/design landscaping firm and has been customizing hot tub installations for many years.

One thing Bill learned is that a custom installation doesn’t have to be complicated. “All a hot tub basically needs is a firm foundation, such as on the ground, that has been prepared to allow proper drainage,” says Bill. “And if you add a little creativity and style to it, the outcome can be very attractive — yet simple to complete.”
