Also, my point about retro fitting an above grade spa was all of the pumps, controls jet and plumbing are accessible. Hope you can find your leak and it is a minor problem. My suggestion was for a major problem like roots.
Our door opening is 44” wide, the skirt on our first spa was real redwood. The second was a some type of synthetic, definitely lighter in weight. Both of the spas were from the same manufacturer.
We have thought about getting a spa for down here
