Etienne reached out to me via email with a vision and a plan for building an infinity hot tub. It was clear from his message that he had a solid idea of what he wanted but needed my expertise to bring it to life. I was excited to help turn his dream into reality.
A DIY Cold Plunge and a hot tub combined? Is that even possible? It certainly is and in this article, I will walk you through a project that I designed for Kyle in the USA.
The Requirement
The client, Kyle, contacted me a while back regarding designs for a hot tub that can be converted into a cold plunge and vice versa for the wellness centre he was building on his property.
I’m calling this a wellness centre rather than “an extension” because you will see in the images below, the end result with cold plunge, sauna and steam room looks more like something you find in a high end hotel than in your back yard.
Kyle knew what he wanted and gave me specifications such as massage jets, the ability to stand in the cold plunge, and, of course, the ability to convert from one to the other.
He asked me to design these plans, and I created the concept for Kyle.

Today, I’m excited to share an incredible DIY hot tub project with you. John, from Kentucky, is building an 8×8, 14-jet hot tub in his backyard using one of my pre-designed plans. Let’s dive into the details!
While many of my case studies focus on custom-designed hot tubs, today we’re taking a look at a more straight forward project. John from Kentucky has chosen to build an 8×8 hot tub using one of my pre-designed plans.
This approach offers a great starting point for DIY enthusiasts looking to create a relaxing oasis without the complexity of a custom design. Let’s follow John’s journey as he brings this off-the-shelf plan to life.
Paul decided to take the plunge (pun intended!) and build his own hot tub, and I’m excited to share his progress in this blog post.
We opted for one of our standard designs from the buildahottub.com store – these are a great way to save money and still get a fantastic hot tub, especially if you’re handy and want to customize it a bit. You can find links to all the standard designs here
Darren got in touch with me April 2024 because like most of my customers, he had been quoted an astronomical amount of money to build a hot tub come swim spa.
The conversation always goes the same way “I spoke to several pool builders and the quotes that I got were outrageous” he began. “I think I can do this myself with your help” – well Darren you have come to the right place I replied.
From there, we had a good chat about the specification and features he was looking for and then it was time for me to get started on the initial design renders.
Have you ever dreamt of soaking in a luxurious hot tub while enjoying a mesmerizing infinity edge that blends seamlessly with the horizon? Well, Doug from Virginia is making that dream a reality by building his very own custom infinity hot tub complete with a built-in swim jet!
Doug got in touch like many of my customers because he knew what he wanted to build but just was not 100% sure on how to do it. He also didn’t want to pay the crazy costs that the pool builders charge for this kind of work.
So, Doug hired me to create a custom design for him. Once complete, I also supplied Doug all of the parts that he needs for the Hot Tub too.
This article / case study is going to follow his progress from start to finish and dives into the initial stages of Doug’s project, and documented on my Buildahottub YouTube channel too.
Buckle up as we explore the intricacies of crafting this backyard oasis.
I love the fact that I can help people literally all over the world with their hot tubs and plunge pools. It really doesn’t matter where you are located. I’ve helped customers in South Africa before, but if my memory serves me correctly, I believe this is the first one that I am helping in Central Africa – Cameroon to be exact.
