How do I remove an inground hot tub?
I recently moved into a house that has an inground hot tub which I do not need/want since I put a new hot tub on the screened-in porch and would prefer to use the space outside where the inground one is for a seating area. Do I have to have it removed or can I just fill it in and brick over it?

If you fill it in drill some holes in the bottom to let water out, in the even it gets past your surface designs.
If you're talking brick above it then you may have an issue with subsidence. You may need to fill it with clay and not something that will settle over the years. Then put a moisture barrier under the brick to keep as much runoff as possible out of the 'vessel.'
